Parâmetros

give it either search_terms or search_page_ids — a call with neither returns an error, not the whole library. ad_snapshot_url is the human-viewable render of the creative and needs the access token appended to load. Results are ads Meta has KEPT: commercial ads leave the library some time after they stop running, so this is a live-ish view, not an archive
