Google Ads Scraper ⚡ Fetch up to 400 ads per minute with this powerful and efficient Google Ads scraper. ## 🔎 What is Google Ads Scraper? It's a simple and powerful tool that allows you to extract data from Google Ads by reading data from its official public ad library, the Google Ads Transparency Center. To get that data, just insert the intended URL from the Google Ads Transparency Center and click the "Save & Start" button. ## 📊 What Google Ads data can I extract? All ad formats are supported by this Google Ads API, meaning that it can extract text, image, and video ads. With this API, you will be able to extract the following data: 🔐 Core ad details - Ad format (text, image, video) - Full ad URL - Preview image URL - Headline and description - Call-to-action label - Ad variations 🌍 Reach & targeting (when available) - Geo-regions where the ad is displayed - Number of impressions (with breakdown by region and platform) - First seen and last seen dates - Audience selections 🖼 Media assets - Image URL (for image ads) - Video URL (for video ads) ## 📖 How to use ### ⬇️ Input The input for the Google Ads Scraper should be a Google Ads Transparency Center URL after a specific advertiser has been selected. It is important to ensure that the input URL starts with https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR<advertiser_id>/.... Example start URL: https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR08888592736429539329?authuser=0&region=ES&preset-date=Last+30+days You can obtain an input start URL in one of two ways: Option 1 - Selecting an advertiser from the list of ads: 1. Start at the Google Ads Transparency Center. 1. Search for ads from the advertiser you are interested in. 1. In the list view, click the intended advertiser's name, which should be displayed at the bottom of the card corresponding to each ad. 1. Copy the current browser URL and use it as input in this scraper. Option 2 - Searching for an advertiser or domain: 1. Start at the Google Ads Transparency Center. 1. Using the search feature of the Google Ads Transparency Center, type the name of your advertiser. 1. From the search dropdown, choose a result that corresponds to a single advertiser or a domain name. If you see an entry mentioning that "multiple advertiser accounts have a similar name", do not select it — instead use Option 1 above (selecting an advertiser from the list of ads). 1. Copy the current browser URL and use it as input in this scraper. ### ⬆️ Output The extracted ad data is stored in a dataset, accessible in the Storage tab. It’s available in JSON, JSONL, Excel, HTML, CSV, or XML and allows seamless integration with tools like Clay, ChatGPT, or your automation workflows. Each item will contain an ad, as shown in the following example: json { "adLibraryUrl": "https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR08888592736429539329/creative/CR08436770543486631937", "advertiserId": "AR08888592736429539329", "advertiserName": "Niantic, Inc.", "creativeId": "CR08436770543486631937", "firstShown": "2023-07-04", "format": "IMAGE", "lastShown": "2024-05-17", "previewUrl": "https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/archive/simgad/12683072185372151324", "regionStats": [ { "regionCode": "DE", "regionName": "Germany", "firstShown": "2023-07-04", "lastShown": "2024-05-17", "impressions": { "lowerBound": 1000, "upperBound": 2000 }, "surfaceServingStats": [ { "surfaceCode": "YOUTUBE", "surfaceName": "YouTube", "impressions": { "lowerBound": 1000, "upperBound": 2000 } }, { "surfaceCode": "SEARCH", "surfaceName": "Google Search", "impressions": { "lowerBound": 0, "upperBound": 1000 } } ] } ], "startUrl": "https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR08888592736429539329region=DE", "targeting": { "targetingCategory": { "demographics": { "1": true, "2": false }, "geography": { "1": true, "2": true }, "contextual": { "1": true, "2": true }, "advertiserList": { "1": false, "2": true } } }, "variations": [ { "clickUrl": "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nianticlabs.pokemongo", "cta": "INSTALL", "description": "Catch Pokémon, battle other Trainers, raid with friends, and more in Pokémon GO", "imageUrl": "https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/simgad/16977068568541754968" }, { "clickUrl": "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nianticlabs.pokemongo", "cta": "INSTALL", "description": "Catch Pokémon, battle other Trainers, raid with friends, and more in Pokémon GO", "imageUrl": "https://tpc.googlesyndication.com/simgad/678465867037824019" } ] } ## ❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) ### How many ads can you scrape with Google Ads Scraper? This scraper has an unlimited appetite for ads and will automatically scroll down the list of results until it reaches the end. You can fetch up to 400 ads per minute when the "Skip details" input option is active, providing exceptional speed for large-scale data collection. Without this optimization, the scraper will still extract all ads with full details at a more comprehensive pace. Happy scraping and may your data flow freely! 🚀😄 ### Why am I missing some ads in the results? If you notice that some ads are missing, try running a search in an incognito/private browsing window. If the missing ads are age-restricted, they won’t appear unless you’re logged in. Since the scraper runs without authentication by default, these ads won’t be included.
