Cannot get it to return results
I can get the actor to return results for some queries, but for others it will not return any results even though when i manually search in GATC there are visible results. This is an example of one that will NOT work through the actor but GATC shows results on a manual search:

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi!
There are indeed some ads active for this advertiser, however these ads are marked as age-restricted. You can confirm this if you logout from your Google account or visit Ads Transparency Center from an Incognito session.
This scraper tool runs in anonymous mode (without logging in), which means that Google does not serve age-restricted ads. Some advertisers may focus mainly on ads that are restricted to certain ages and therefore this tool cannot retrieve some of their ads.

Oh ok. Makes complete sense. Are there any SERP scraper tools that would be able to return age restricted ads?
Gustavo Silva (silva95gustavo)
I’m not aware of any SERP scrapers that specifically support age-restricted ads. In fact, accessing these ads requires authentication, which most scrapers avoid due to potential Terms of Service violations.
Unfortunately, I’ve decided not to implement support for age-restricted ads. Here’s why:
- Accessing age-restricted ads requires being logged in, which could violate Google’s Terms of Service.
- Adding this feature could pose a risk of account termination for users, which I want to avoid.
That said, if you’d like to proceed at your own discretion, you can customize the requests made by the scraper to include your session cookies. Here’s an example of how to pass custom headers in the input:
1{ 2 "startUrls": [ 3 { 4 "headers": { 5 "cookie": "<insert_cookies>", 6 "x-framework-xsrf-token": "<insert_token>" 7 }, 8 "url": "https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR08888592736429539329?authuser=0®ion=ES&preset-date=Last+7+days" 9 } 10 ] 11}
How to Configure:
- If you’re running the scraper from the Apify Console (UI), switch from "Manual" to "JSON" input mode.
- Add your headers under the headers object, as shown above.
- Replace
<insert_cookies>and<insert_token>with your session cookies and any required tokens.
Please keep in mind that using this approach carries the risks mentioned earlier, so proceed with caution.
