Google Ads API

We’re introducing the new Google Ads API, giving developers structured access to sponsored results and advertising data that appear across Google Search. The API extracts a wide range of ad formats, including text ads, local service ads, shopping ads, pricing information, ratings, reviews, sitelinks, and other ad extensions, making it easier to analyze paid search visibility and advertising performance at scale. This new capability helps businesses, marketers, and AI-powered applications monitor competitor advertising strategies, track product promotions, measure ad presence across search results, and build deeper search intelligence workflows without relying on manual data collection.
