Teams building on Social Fetch.

“Our TikTok and Instagram scrapers broke constantly. Social Fetch took us off that rotation — we ship product again.”

Daniel Reeve · Founder, Social Crow

  • “Transcripts at volume from one endpoint. No broken scrapers for our small team to maintain.”

    Marcus Lin · Founder, Voice Gecko

  • “Live profile data on every request. We never flag accounts from a stale cache.”

    Hannah Webb · Founder, Scam Finder

  • “Heavy concurrent load, no rate limits to negotiate. The rare API I haven't wrapped in retries.”

    Owen Pritchard · Founder, IP Flare

Google API: common questions

What Google data does Social Fetch cover?

Three marketplace operations under the Google tag: advertiser search (GET /v1/google/ad-library/advertisers/search), company ads lists (GET /v1/google/ad-library/companies/ads), and single-ad detail (GET /v1/google/ad-library/ads). Exact parameters and response fields live under /docs/api and on this hub's endpoint list. There is no Google Search results scraper, Maps places API, or general YouTube catalog under this tag.

Is this the Google Ads API?

No. Google Ads API is for managing and reporting on ads accounts you authorize. Social Fetch Google routes read public Ad Transparency research data. You authenticate to Social Fetch with an API key; you do not connect a Google Ads MCC or act on behalf of an advertiser you manage.

Google Ad Transparency Center vs Social Fetch — what is the difference?

Transparency Center is Google's public UI for browsing ads. Social Fetch wraps the same public research as REST: discover advertisers, list creatives with filters and pagination, fetch one creative by URL.

How do I find Google advertisers by brand name?

Call GET /v1/google/ad-library/advertisers/search with a required query string and optional region (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2; default: US). The response includes data.advertisers (name, advertiserId, region, adsEstimate), data.websites, and data.totalAdvertisers. Then pass an advertiserId or domain into company ads.

How do I list ads for a company domain or advertiser id?

Call GET /v1/google/ad-library/companies/ads with either domain (for example lululemon.com) or advertiserId. Optional filters: topic (all or political — region required when topic is political), region, startDate / endDate (YYYY-MM-DD), platform (google_search, youtube, google_maps, google_play, google_shopping), and format (text, image, video). Paginate with cursor when data.page.hasMore is true.

How do I fetch one Google Ad Transparency creative?

Pass the public creative URL to GET /v1/google/ad-library/ads as the required url query param (the /advertiser/…/creative/… form on adstransparency.google.com). On a hit, data.lookupStatus is found and data.ad can include format, show dates, impression ranges, region stats, and creative variations. On a miss, lookupStatus is not_found and ad is null — still check meta.creditsCharged.

How much does the Google Ad Library API cost?

You buy credit packs (or use the 100 free signup credits). Each Google operation is priced in the API registry — amounts appear on the endpoint pages linked from this hub. Company ads pages can cost more than a single advertiser search; each paginated page is a separate billed lookup. Confirm every response with meta.creditsCharged. There is no required monthly subscription for pay-as-you-go packs.

Do you scrape Google Search results?

No. The Google marketplace tag is Ad Transparency only. For generic page fetch, ask, or crawl-style extraction, use the Web platform hub and its routes — not /v1/google/ad-library/....

Can I use Google Ad Library routes from agents or MCP?

Yes. The same operations appear as typed MCP tools and can be reached via Ask (POST /v1/ask) for plain-English exploration. For production cron and competitive archives, pin the typed Google GETs with an API key so routing stays explicit.

Is Google Ad Library / Ad Transparency data legal to use?

Ad Transparency exists so the public can inspect ads that ran on Google surfaces. Social Fetch returns that publicly visible research data. You are still responsible for how you use it under Google's terms, applicable law, and your own compliance review. We do not give legal advice.

The Google API in detailHow the Google routes work, what they cost, and how they differ from the official API.

Why teams use Social Fetch for Google

Google Ad Transparency Center works for one-off checks. Scheduled competitor snapshots, date-bounded archives, and agent pipelines need structured JSON on the same key as Meta Ad Library.

Social Fetch's Google tag is three Ad Library GETs. GET /v1/google/ad-library/advertisers/search turns a brand name into advertiser ids and related domains. GET /v1/google/ad-library/companies/ads lists creatives for a domain or advertiserId with filters and cursor pagination. GET /v1/google/ad-library/ads hydrates one public Transparency creative URL. Responses use { data, meta } (lookupStatus, requestId, creditsCharged).

The same API key covers the rest of the marketplace catalog (25 platforms, 264 endpoints). This tag is Ad Transparency only — not Google Search, Maps, or YouTube. Use the Web tag or those platform hubs for that work.

How to call the Google API

  1. 1. Create an API key

    Sign up at Social Fetch and copy a key (sfk_…). New accounts get 100 free credits — enough to run advertiser search, one company-ads page, and a single-ad hydrate against live Transparency data.

  2. 2. Discover, then list, then hydrate

    Start with GET /v1/google/ad-library/advertisers/search?query=… (optional region, default US). Pass advertiserId or a domain from data.websites into GET /v1/google/ad-library/companies/ads. When you already have a creative URL (/advertiser/…/creative/…), call GET /v1/google/ad-library/ads?url=…. Pass x-api-key on every request.

  3. 3. Archive with envelope fields

    Branch on data.lookupStatus before writing rows. Persist creative ids, show dates, and meta.requestId for support. Bill from meta.creditsCharged — each paginated company-ads page is a separate billed lookup.

What each Google route returns

  • Advertiser search by name — advertiserId, region, adsEstimate, related website domains.
  • Company ads by domain or advertiserId — Search, YouTube, Maps, Play, Shopping surfaces.
  • Filter company ads by topic, region, date range, platform, and creative format (text / image / video).
  • Cursor pagination on company ads lists (data.page.hasMore / nextCursor).
  • Single creative detail from a public Ad Transparency URL — variations, region stats, impression ranges when Google exposes them.
  • Shared Social Fetch envelope and API key with Facebook Ad Library and the rest of the catalog.
  • Public Ad Transparency data only — not campaign management, billing, or private ads account data.

How much does the Google API cost?

Google Ad Library routes are credit-priced per completed lookup. Costs differ by operation and are shown on each endpoint page and in the API reference — do not assume a flat 1-credit rate for every Google call. Credits never expire on pay-as-you-go packs. Signup includes 100 free credits. Always trust meta.creditsCharged.

Social Fetch vs the official Google API

Google Ad Transparency Center is Google's public UI for ads on Google surfaces. Google Ads API is for accounts you control — campaigns, reporting, billing. Social Fetch is public lookup over Transparency-style research: brand or URL in, JSON out, one Social Fetch key, no Google Ads account.
