Missing 'First Shown' Dates in Video Creatives – Scraper Issue or Google Update?

Open

takoshikubozima opened this issue

Hi, I noticed that the scraper stopped retrieving the 'firstShown' date for videos. A couple of weeks ago, it was working fine, but now about 80% of the creatives don't have this data. Is this an issue on the scraper's side, or did Google change something on their end?

Thanks for reaching out.

Could you share an example input URL where you're seeing the firstShown date missing? That will help me investigate further.

Also, keep in mind that the availability of metrics like firstShown and lastShown can depend on the target country of the ad. In general, ads targeting countries in the EU tend to have more detailed data, while other regions may show less.
