Parameters

answers arrive in `ad_creatives`. This is the one endpoint in the file whose query param is `text` rather than `q` — and it is optional, because you may identify the advertiser by id instead.

Query parameters
`num`	integer	Optional	results to return; default 40. Unlike engine=google, `num` IS documented here	`10`
`text`	string	Optional	free-text advertiser or domain to search for. Supply either this OR advertiser_id — neither is individually mandatory but one is needed	`coffee`
`engine`	string	Required		`google_ads_transparency_center`
`region`	string	Optional	geographic region the search originates from. REQUIRED when political_ads is true
`end_date`	string	Optional	YYYYMMDD
`platform`	string	Optional	where the ad ran: PLAY \| MAPS \| SEARCH \| SHOPPING \| YOUTUBE
`start_date`	string	Optional	YYYYMMDD
`advertiser_id`	string	Optional	a specific advertiser id, or several comma-separated
`political_ads`	boolean	Optional	restrict to political advertising; forces `region` to be set
`creative_format`	string	Optional	text \| image \| video
