# Google Shopping Ads Seasonal Discount Tracker

**Use case:** 

Catch seasonal promotions on Google Shopping ads by pulling badge text, discount percent, original price, and current price for holiday and sale keywords. Run this before Black Friday or Christmas to see which merchants are already running percent-off badges on your product category. Retail teams get a structured feed of every active discount without manually browsing the Shopping tab.

    "christmas gifts",

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/getascraper/google-shopping-ads-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
