Connect an OpenAI Ads account
Connect an OpenAI Ads account using an API key from ChatGPT Ads Manager.
The key grants full campaign write access on OpenAI's side (OpenAI does not offer a read-only key scope). Zernio uses it to read ads and performance, and to create and manage campaigns you set up through Zernio (create, status, budget, and cancel). Campaigns created directly in ChatGPT Ads Manager can still be managed there.

}Set TikTok brand identity PATCH
Set or update the Brand Identity (display name + avatar) for a `tiktokads` SocialAccount. TikTok requires every ad to carry an `identity_id + identity_type` pair. The Brand Identity is the CUSTOMIZED_USER alternative to attributing ads to a real @username (TT_USER). This route uploads the supplied image to TikTok, creates the identity via `/v2/identity/create/`, and caches the resulting `identity_id` on the account so subsequent `POST /v1/ads/create` calls can opt into it via `identityType: 'CUSTOMIZED_USER'`. Configurable on every `tiktokads` account, including linked-mode ones (those with a posting account on the same profile). Configuration is idempotent and harmless when posting is also connected: the default ad-create path still prefers TT_USER, and CUSTOMIZED_USER is only used per-ad when the caller explicitly opts in. TikTok identities are immutable post-creation. Re-saving creates a new identity on TikTok and swaps the cached id; the old identity stays orphaned on TikTok's side (harmless, no billing impact). Alternative: pass `brandIdentity` directly on `POST /v1/ads/create` to configure on first ad creation in a single round-trip.
