# How to export the Google Ads Transparency Center in bulk

The Ads Transparency Center shows every Google ad an advertiser runs, but only one creative at a time and with no export. Here is how to pull the whole list.

**Short answer**

Give the **Ads Transparency Scraper** an advertiser name, an `AR...` advertiser ID, a Transparency Center link or a website domain, with the source on **Google**. Filter by region, ad format (text, image, video), platform and dates. Each row has the format, headline, description, call to action, landing page, image or YouTube link, regions and first and last shown dates. Google has no public API for this data, so a scraper is the way to get it into a file.

## A real use case

A paid-search consultant wants to know which landing pages a client's rival sends traffic to. A domain search returns every advertiser's ads pointing at the rival's site. Sorting by `landingUrl` shows the pages getting the budget.

## Step by step

1. **Leave Ad source on Google.**
2. **Add targets**: advertiser names, `AR...` IDs, Transparency Center links or domains.
3. **Filter** by region, format (text is Search, image is display and Shopping, video is YouTube), platform and dates.
4. **Set the limits and run.** Download CSV, Excel or JSON.

### Input (paste into the JSON tab)

```
{
  "source": "google",
  "targets": [
    "nike.com",
    "AR09597646619583447041"
  ],
  "region": "US",
  "adFormat": "all",
  "lastDays": 90,
  "maxAdsPerTarget": 500,
  "includeCreativeDetails": true
}
```

### What you get back

```
{
  "advertiserName": "Example Brand, Inc.",
  "verified": true,
  "format": "video",
  "firstShown": "2026-07-07T14:21:15.000Z",
  "daysShown": 85,
  "regions": [
    "US"
  ],
  "headline": "Spring sale on running shoes",
  "callToAction": "Visit site",
  "landingUrl": "https://example.com/sale",
  "videoUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abc123",
  "adUrl": "https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR00000000000000000000/creative/CR00000000000000000000?region=US"
}
```

Trimmed example. Names and numbers are illustrative; your run returns real data with more fields.

## Tips

- A name can match several accounts, such as the parent company and its retail arm. Use the `AR...` ID for one exact advertiser, or raise `maxAdvertisersPerName` to take more matches.
- Turn off `includeCreativeDetails` for a faster, cheaper list of IDs, dates and formats.
- Many text ads are stored by Google as a screenshot only. Those rows have the image but no headline text.
- Platform filters only cover ads shown since 4 September 2023.
- Want Meta ads too? See [how to see competitors' Google and Meta ads](/how-to/see-competitor-ads-google-meta/).

## What it costs

$1.40 per 1,000 ads for the ad list, plus $2.10 per 1,000 for full creative details: a complete row is $3.50 per 1,000. 500 complete ads cost about **$1.75**.

Plus a small per-run start fee. Apify's free plan includes monthly credit, enough to test. Check the listing for current pricing.

## FAQ

**Can I download Google Ads Transparency Center data?**

The Transparency Center has no export. The Ads Transparency Scraper reads it and gives you CSV, Excel or JSON.

**Is there a Google Ads Transparency Center API?**

Google has no public API for it. You can call this actor through the Apify API instead.

**Can I search by website instead of advertiser name?**

Yes. A domain such as nike.com returns the ads of every advertiser that points to that site.

**Does it include YouTube ads?**

Yes. Set the platform to YouTube or the format to video, and rows include the YouTube video link.
