Compared to alternatives
- vs other Google Ads Transparency scrapers on the Store — pay-per-result billing means empty or failed searches cost nothing; you are not charged for a run that returns zero rows.
- vs building your own — nothing to build or maintain when Google changes its page layout; paste inputs and consume the dataset.
Limitations
- Coverage mirrors Google's Transparency Center — non-Google networks are out of scope.
- Creative images are referenced by URL, not downloaded.
- Very new ads can lag a few days before appearing.
FAQ
Do I need an account or cookies?
No — the Actor reads public data only. There is no login to configure and no account to risk.
What happens when a search returns nothing?
The run completes with zero (or an explicit error) rows. Per-result billing means you are not charged for empty output.
Can I run it on a schedule?
Yes — attach an Apify schedule or use the saved tasks to re-run the same inputs daily or weekly.
