SearchAPI.io - Meta Ad Library Ad Details API

SearchAPI.io tool searchapi-io-meta-ad-library-ad-details on looot: input fields, $0.004 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

This API retrieves detailed information about a specific ad from the Meta Ad Library, including advertiser page information, audience insights, and EU/UK transparency data for ads shown in those regions. Cross-linking: Use the Meta Ad Library API to search for ads. Each returned ad includes an ad_details_token and an ad_archive_id that can be passed to this API. The page_id parameter can also be obtained from the Meta Ad Library Page Search API or the Meta Ad Library Page Info API.

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
ad_archive_id string yes
ad_details_token string no
country string no
engine string no Fixed to “meta_ad_library_ad_details” for this endpoint. Example: “meta_ad_library_ad_details”
is_political boolean no
page_id string no

Output

The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect searchapi-io-meta-ad-library-ad-details prints its fields.

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"searchapi-io-meta-ad-library-ad-details","input":{"ad_archive_id":"<ad_archive_id>","engine":"meta_ad_library_ad_details"},"wait":30}'
const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "searchapi-io-meta-ad-library-ad-details",
    input: {
      ad_archive_id: "<ad_archive_id>",
      engine: "meta_ad_library_ad_details",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "searchapi-io-meta-ad-library-ad-details",
        "input": {
            "ad_archive_id": "<ad_archive_id>",
            "engine": "meta_ad_library_ad_details",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:search.meta-ad-library-ad-details as endpointId; see the job page.
