# See the Google ads a competitor runs, by domain

**Use case:** 

Up to 10 ads per domain from the Google Ads Transparency Center (here notion.so and hubspot.com; raise the limit for all): advertiser, ad ID, format, first and last shown dates, landing domain, image URL and the countries it ran in by name. Headline and text are added when Google's preview serves them. $0.75 per 1,000 ads on the free plan; queries with no ads have no ad charge.

## Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "notion.so",
    "hubspot.com"
  ],
  "maxAdsPerQuery": 10,
  "regions": [],
  "format": "any",
  "includeRegions": true,
  "includeAdCopy": true,
  "maxAdvertisersPerName": 1,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Google Ads Transparency Center Scraper & Google Ads Library](https://apify.com/hiver/google-ads-transparency-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/hiver/google-ads-transparency-scraper.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## 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/hiver/google-ads-transparency-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`).
