# ads_create_workflow (https://sellersheetai.com/docs/mcp-api/tools/ads_create_workflow)

> Save an AMC query on the store's instance under an id of your choosing, so a schedule (ads_create_schedule) can run it every day or week.

Ask the seller first. Amazon Ads API · createWorkflow · POST /amc/reporting/{instanceId}/workflows Docs: https://advertising.amazon.com/API/docs/en-us/amc-reporting#tag/Workflows/operation/createWorkflow Gate: approve — interactive: show the change (Amazon's preview first where one exists), wait for an explicit approve; autopilot: only when the seller's own words asked for this change; otherwise ask.

```

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `store` | string | yes | the store ref `<store>-<CC>` (name-country, e.g. 'myStore-US') — one of get_user_context's store_refs, verbatim. |
| `country_code` | string | yes | the Ads profile's 2-letter country code (e.g. 'US'). |
| `body` | object | yes | the request body — its fields, enums and required marks are in this parameter's schema. workflowId (letters, digits, '_', '-', '.') and sqlQuery are required; the SQL is the same AMC SQL as ads_create_workflow_execution's. |

## Result

- `data.workflow_id` — the saved workflow's id.

## Gotchas

- A synced report's workflow (data.synced_ids of ads_list_workflows) is refused.
- Check the SQL first with ads_create_workflow_execution (dry_run true).
