What data can I get from the Google Ad Library API?+
Search Google Ads Transparency Center advertisers and pull company ads or creative details. Each endpoint is a single GET request that responds with predictable JSON fields, so the data is ready for dashboards, AI pipelines, and automations.
Do I need a Google Ad Library developer account or OAuth?+
No. You only need a Captapi key (capt_live_...), sent as an Authorization: Bearer header. The same key works across all 32 platforms Captapi supports. We handle proxies, rate limits, retries, and parsing for you.
How much does the Google Ad Library API cost?+

Can AI agents use the Google Ad Library API?+
Yes. Every Google Ad Library endpoint is exposed as a tool in the official MCP server (@captapi/mcp) for Claude, Cursor, and VS Code, and is also available through the @captapi/cli CLI, an n8n community node, a Make.com app, and an Apify Actor.
Is the Google Ad Library API suitable for production use?+
Yes. It is a stable REST API with predictable JSON, automatic retries, and upstream fallbacks. Pass cache=true to serve from the 24h shared cache (0 credits on hit); default is always fresh. Only successful responses consume credits — failed or empty results are never charged.
