Filtering by advertiser name doesn't work
Closed
Hello, The filtering by advertiser name doesn't work. Please refund my subscription. Thanks

Sorry to hear that, we're looking at the issue immediately. For a refund, you have to contact Apify support, as actor developers do not handle this. Thanks.

Hi, upon investigation we saw that in your run you specified both "query" and "advertiserName". From the actor documentation:
To run the actor, you can input a:
Query - A query to search for ads. This can be a company name, domain, or a search string that appears in the ad.
Advertiser Name - An advertiser name to search for ads.
Or both, in which case the actor will search for ads that match the query and ignore the advertiser name.
In order to filter by advertiser name, query must be empty.
Thanks for using the actor, looking forward to help with any other issues you might encounter.

I confirm that it doesn't work as you explain. When using advertiserName only, it doesn't filter on advertiserName.
Here is a set of inputs/outputs:
{ "advertiserName": "PANDA TEA", "country": "FR", "endDate": "2025-06-01", "maxPages": 20, "startDate": "2024-07-01", "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } }

Thank you for the help

We've updated the actor to only scrape advertiser names that match the "advertiserName" input.
However, for the query you pasted - "PANDA TEA" there are no such advertisers. There's "PANDA TEAM", but even that advertiser has no ads.
Let us know how we can help further.

It still doesn't work. See below. I tried with a capitalized or non capitalized name [image: Screenshot 2025-06-11 at 16.06.39.png] [image: Screenshot 2025-06-11 at 16.06.43.png] [image: Screenshot 2025-06-11 at 16.10.07.png] [image: Screenshot 2025-06-11 at 16.10.11.png] [image: Screenshot 2025-06-11 at 16.10.19.png]

We saw that "ABI GLOBAL Ltd" does not appear in the advertiser search. However, when we do query, there ads showing up with this advertiser name. We added a mode to the scraper that handles this discrepancy in the TikTok Ad Library, by falling back to query search, and performing filtering after getting the ads. Please try again now and let us know if the issue still persists. Thanks for sticking through!
