LinkedIn Ad Library

LinkedIn Ad Library Search API

Searches LinkedIn's public Ad Library for ads by keyword, advertiser name, company ID or payer, filtered by country and the days they ran. Each result is the library's card: the ad's ID and link, advertiser name and logo, format, headline, the start of its text, images, a video's cover, carousel slides and a document's first pages. Results come newest or oldest first, and the LinkedIn Ad Library Ad API returns any of them in full from its ID.

Good to know

A result has what the library's card shows. Who paid, run dates, impressions, countries, targeting, destination, call to action, video file and full text are null: the LinkedIn Ad Library Ad API returns them from the result's ID.
The advertiser's ID and link are null too, unless the request names exactly one company by ID, whose ads these all are.
search_by=advertiser matches words in advertisers' names, so it can bring in other companies ("microsoft" also finds a company with Microsoft in its tagline). search_by=advertiser_id is exact.
since and until keep the ads that ran during the window, in whole days, as LinkedIn filters them: an ad counts when it first ran before until and last ran on or after since. Cards carry no dates, and the LinkedIn Ad Library Ad API returns an ad's.
After the matching ads, the library lists company discovery ads, which have no number of their own: their ID is employer-brand-<company>-<channel>, and the LinkedIn Ad Library Ad API takes it too.
A word as common as "the" or "a" finds only company discovery ads, and the walk ends at platform_limit. Searched within one company or advertiser, such a word is dropped and all its ads come back. As an advertiser's name, it filters nothing.
An ad LinkedIn deleted stays listed with is_active false. is_active is null on every other ad, as the library shows no status.

Authorizations

x-api-keystringheaderrequired

Your API key. Authentication

Query parameters

querystringrequiredmax 200 chars

What to search for, as search_by says: words in the ad (keyword); words in the advertiser's name (advertiser), fuzzy, so other companies with those words come too; a company's numeric ID, or several with commas (advertiser_id), exact; words in the ad's "Paid for by" line (payer).

Examplehiring

search_bystring

What query names. Default: keyword.

One ofkeywordadvertiseradvertiser_idpayer

advertiserstringmax 200 chars

Only ads of advertisers with these words in their name, for a keyword or payer search. Fuzzy, like search_by=advertiser: other companies with those words come too. Use this or advertiser_id, not both.

advertiser_idstringmax 500 chars

Only this company's ads, for a keyword or payer search: its numeric ID, several with commas, or its link by ID (advertiser.url from the LinkedIn Ad Library Ad API, linkedin.com/company/1035). Exact. The LinkedIn Profile API returns a company's ID from its name.

Example1035

countrystringiso3166-1-alpha-2

Region: an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code such as US or BR (case-insensitive). Only ads shown in this country. All countries when omitted.

ExampleUS

countriesstringmax 750 chars

Only ads shown in any of these countries: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes with commas. Use this or country, not both.

ExampleDE,FR

sortstring

Order of the results. newest: the ads that started most recently first, the library's default. oldest: the earliest first.

One ofnewestoldest

sincestringdate-time

Only items at or after this time: RFC 3339 (2026-10-01T12:00:00Z) or a date (2026-10-01, midnight UTC). On newest-first lists, paging stops when it is reached, so later pages are not fetched or charged. Ads count when they ran during the window: an ad that last ran before this day is left out. LinkedIn searches whole days from about a year ago to about two days ago: 364 days back and three days back are always accepted, and past the limit, which moves with the hour, it is refused with the exact date, not answered empty. A window ends yesterday or the day before, so the newest ads are only found without since and until.

Only items before this time (exclusive): RFC 3339 or a date (midnight UTC). Ads count when they ran during the window: an ad that first ran on or after this day is left out. An until past the last day LinkedIn's dates reach, yesterday or the day before, reads as that day. Alone, it starts the window about a year back, as far as LinkedIn's dates reach, so an ad that last ran before then is left out.

Example2026-10-08

limitintegermin 1max 24

Items per page, 1 to the endpoint's page size (its default and maximum; larger values are reduced to it). Omit it: every page costs the same, so a smaller limit means more pages to pay for.

Example24

cursorstring

page.next_cursor from the previous response. Send the same other parameters; omit to start from the first page.

Unknown parameters are rejected with a suggestion, never ignored (Requests). limit and cursor page through the list: see Pagination.

Parameters every endpoint accepts

max_ageintegermin 0

Accept a cached response up to this many seconds old. Cache hits cost 0 credits. Omit to always fetch fresh. The Cache-Control: max-age=N request header is equivalent; max_age wins when both are sent.

fieldsstring

Return only these fields of each item: comma-separated paths in the schema's notation (id,text,metrics.view_count,segments[].text; a parent path keeps the whole object). Unknown paths are rejected. Applied after the cache, so it changes neither the price nor cache hits; page and meta are always returned whole.

400

400 Bad Request: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.

invalid_inputNo retry

A parameter is missing or malformed, or the link is not one this endpoint takes.

Fix the parameter named in param as the message says. For a link of the wrong kind, call an endpoint listed in details.endpoints, when there is one.

invalid_cursorNo retry

The cursor is malformed or expired, belongs to another endpoint, or came with other parameters than the request that returned it.

Repeat the original request without cursor to start the list again.

401

401 Unauthorized: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

unauthorizedNo retry

The x-api-key header is missing, or its key is unknown or revoked. On the dashboard's routes: the session cookie is missing or expired.

Send a valid API key in the x-api-key header. No key yet? A person gets one at details.signup_url; an AI agent follows details.agent_auth_url.

402

402 Payment Required: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.

insufficient_creditsNo retry

The account does not have enough credits for this request.

Have a person buy credits at details.purchase_url (or make them a checkout link with details.checkout), then repeat the request. Do not retry automatically.

spend_limit_reachedNo retry

The API key reached its spend limit for this period. The account may still have credits.

Wait until details.resets_at, or raise the key's spend limit (PATCH /v1/api_keys/{id}). Do not retry automatically.

403

403 Forbidden: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

forbiddenNo retry

The API key is valid but may not make this request, and details.reason says why: the account is suspended, the key lacks the route's scope, waits for its owner to confirm it by email, has expired, or was used from an IP outside its allowlist, or a rotated key's previous secret was used for a call that needs the admin scope. A running job stops with it too when its account is suspended or the key that created it is revoked or expires. It is about the key, never the item: a private item is private_or_unavailable, also 403, so branch on the code.

Act on details.reason. suspended: contact support. scope: use a key with details.required_scope. previous_secret: use the new secret. key_pending: have the owner open the emailed link. key_expired or key_revoked: create a new key. ip_not_allowed: call from an allowed IP.

404

404 Not Found: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

not_foundNo retry

The item does not exist or was deleted. On GET /v1/requests/{id}/response: the response was not kept (details.reason says why).

Check the link or ID. Do not retry.

429

429 Too Many Requests: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

rate_limitedYes, later

The account passed its runaway-protection ceiling: a high per-account limit that stops a broken client loop (plans have no rate limit). Requests without an API key (signup, the MCP server's tool listing and find_endpoint) are limited per IP address instead. It also stops an account whose failed requests in the last hour cost far more than its successful ones paid for: failures are free within a limit (the message says so), and successes raise it.

Wait the seconds in the retry-after header, then retry. If your steady traffic needs more, ask support to raise the ceiling; without an API key, send one.

500

500 Internal Error: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

internalYes, later

An unexpected error on SocialTap's side.

Retry with backoff. If it keeps happening, contact support with the request_id.

502

502 Bad Gateway: 1 error code. Free: errors cost nothing.

upstream_errorYes, later

The platform failed, or answered with something we could not read.

Retry with backoff. Failed requests are free.

503

503 Unavailable: 2 error codes. Free: errors cost nothing.

upstream_blockedYes, later

The platform refused every attempt, our own retries included.

Retry later with backoff. Failed requests are free.

overloadedYes, later

SocialTap was at capacity, or paused by its operators, and did not start the request. Nothing was fetched or charged.

Retry after the seconds in the retry-after header. Failed requests are free.

Pagination

Items come in pages, most recently started first. To get the next page, send the same request plus cursor set to page.next_cursor from the previous response. Keep every other parameter the same (limit, max_age and fields may change); anything else that differs is rejected. When page.has_more is false the walk is over, and page.end_reason says why: only end means you have every item (the others say the platform or a page cap stopped the walk early).

Order: sort=newest (the default): most recently started first; sort=oldest: earliest started first
Page size: Up to 24 ads (the default; limit lowers it)
Cursor lifetime: 24 hours; don't store cursors
Price: Per page, 1 credit

The `page` object

has_moreboolean

True when another page exists; then next_cursor is set. An empty page with has_more true is not the end.

next_cursorstringnullable

Pass as cursor, with the same other parameters, to get the next page; null at the end.

next_cursor_expires_atstring date-timenullable

When next_cursor stops working, RFC 3339 UTC; null at the end. Don't store cursors.

end_reasonstringnullable

Why there are no more pages; null while has_more is true. end: the list ended, or reached since/until. platform_limit: the platform stops serving further pages although the list goes on. max_pages: SocialTap's cap on pages in one walk. New values may be added. A short or empty page is not the end: only has_more false is.

One ofendplatform_limitmax_pages

cURL: next page

curl 'https://socialtap.dev/v1/linkedin/search_ads?query=hiring&cursor=c1.EXAMPLE_CURSOR' \
  -H "x-api-key: $SOCIALTAP_API_KEY"

The price is per page: each successful page costs the same, whatever limit is and however many items it has. Empty pages are charged too (an empty page with has_more: true is not the end).
A limit below 24 doesn't save credits: the next request serves the rest of the same platform page, which is fetched again and charged as a page each time, and items can shift between those requests if the platform changes the list. Omitting limit is the cheapest way to walk the list.
Errors are free, including a rejected cursor.
Pages served from the cache are free.
An expired or altered cursor, or one sent with different parameters, fails with invalid_cursor (HTTP 400): Repeat the original request without cursor to start the list again.

Pagination guide

Pricing

From 1 credit per page. Charged per successful page, whatever its number of items. Errors are free. The price depends on the source that produced the result, reported as meta.source.

Source	Price per successful page	Per 1,000 pages
Public page `page`	1 credit	$0.75–$1.97

Balance, sources and what you were charged

Your balance must be at least 1 credit to start a request; with less, it is refused with insufficient_credits (HTTP 402) and costs nothing. Only that minimum is set aside when the request starts.

meta.source	Source	What it means
`page`	Public page	Data embedded in the platform's public web page.

meta.credits_charged and the x-credits-charged header show what you paid. How credits work · Packs
