Cannot get only a number of ads for certain period
Closed
I have a list of sites I want to scrap in Facebook Ads Library. The task is to get the amount of ads for certain period for certain site. I used this JSON for input:
{ "onlyTotal": true, "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.facebook.com/drmartens", "startDateFormatted": "2024-03-01T07:00:00.000Z", "endDateFormatted": "2024-08-31T07:00:00.000Z" } ], "resultsLimit": 99999, "activeStatus": "" }
But with it I receive only the whole amount of ads for all periods possible. Is it possible to convert the json input for my request? If so, how to fix it?
Hi!
You need to compose direct URL like https://www.facebook.com/ads/library/?active_status=active&ad_type=all&country=ALL&is_targeted_country=false&media_type=all&search_type=page&start_date[min]=2025-03-01&start_date[max]&view_all_page_id=110998592305221
The actor should be able to mimic all filters applied on Ad LIB UI, so we will not re-add the same support as separate input options
You will need view_all_page_id before getting the ads per page, 110998592305221 for https://www.facebook.com/drmartens available either from the Facebook Pages actor or from this actor.
So you will need two steps:
- Run(s) to get the page ID from the page name or URL
- Crafted URL(s) with modified
start_date[min]=2025-03-01&start_date[max]&view_all_page_id=110998592305221
I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.

Hi! Thank you for an advice! I've tried this way using Facebook Pages actor. Unfortunately, I cannot receive right id. For example, for https://www.facebook.com/drmartens parameter "pageId" i receive value 100070208630156 instead of 110998592305221. I've searched for other parameters indicating 110998592305221 value, but did not find anything. Could you please advice where to find 110998592305221? Maybe I missed something in my input request or simply doing something wrong with my output?
