# Google ad impressions by country (EU)

**Use case:** 

For ads shown in the EU, Google publishes impression ranges and every country an ad ran in. This task gets them for an advertiser in Germany: impressions per country and platform, plus first and last shown dates.

## Input

```json
{
  "searches": [
    "booking.com"
  ],
  "region": "DE",
  "format": "all",
  "platform": "all",
  "maxAdsPerSearch": 100,
  "includeDetails": true,
  "includeAdText": false,
  "advertisersPerName": 1,
  "maxConcurrency": 16,
  "searchConcurrency": 4,
  "maxRetries": 5
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "advertiserName": {
    "label": "Advertiser name"
  },
  "format": {
    "label": "Format"
  },
  "details.impressions.min": {
    "label": "Min"
  },
  "details.impressions.max": {
    "label": "Max"
  },
  "details.firstShown": {
    "label": "First shown"
  },
  "details.lastShown": {
    "label": "Last shown"
  },
  "details.regions": {
    "label": "Regions"

## FAQ

### Why do impressions only show for EU ads?

Google publishes impression ranges under the EU Digital Services Act. Outside the EU you get the countries and dates but usually no impression numbers.

### Are impressions exact?

No. Google publishes ranges, for example 1,000–2,000. The task returns min and max.

## 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/seodatalab/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`).
