FAQ

Does Google Ads Transparency Scraper need a login, cookies or an API key? No. It reads public pages only.

Can I run Google Ads Transparency Scraper on a schedule? Yes - with Apify Schedules; each run returns fresh rows.

Can I call it from Python, JavaScript or an AI agent? Yes - through the Apify API, the Apify client libraries or the Apify MCP server.

Is it legal? It collects only data anyone can see without logging in. You are responsible for using it within the source site's terms and data protection law (GDPR, CCPA).

What if the site blocks a request? The run retries from a fresh connection and, if it still cannot read the page, stops with a clear message - never with made-up rows.

Do I need proxies? No setup needed - Google Ads Transparency Scraper uses Apify Proxy by default where the site needs it.

Troubleshooting

• No results: check the input (a public URL or a search term that returns results in a normal browser), then try the example input once.
• Fewer results than expected: raise the maximum in the input; some sites show only a part of their data without logging in, and Google Ads Transparency Scraper never logs in.
• The run stopped with a message: the message says what the site answered; run it again later or with fewer items.
