Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

n8n-nodes-apify-google-ads-scraper

v0.1.0

Published

n8n community node for running Apify Google Ads Scraper to monitor Google Ads Transparency Center creatives.

Readme

Google Ads Scraper for n8n — monitor competitor ads from Google Ads Transparency Center

Run Apify Google Ads Scraper from n8n without writing Apify API code. Schedule Google Ads Transparency Center scraping from n8n and route new ad creatives to Sheets, Slack, Airtable, Notion, or your BI database.

Installation

Install as an n8n community node:

npm install n8n-nodes-apify-google-ads-scraper

Or in n8n: Settings → Community Nodes → Install and enter n8n-nodes-apify-google-ads-scraper.

Authentication

Create an Apify API token in your Apify account and add it to this node's Apify API key connection credential in n8n. n8n Cloud users can also use the Apify OAuth2 credential generated by the template.

Cost note

The n8n package is free to install. Each workflow execution starts the Apify Actor on Apify and consumes your Apify credits according to the Actor's pay-per-event pricing. See the Store actor pricing for the current start/ad charges.

Common n8n workflows

  1. Cron → Google Ads Scraper → compare IDs → Slack: run daily competitor-domain checks and alert the team when new creatives appear.
  2. Airtable advertisers → Google Ads Scraper → Airtable/Sheets: scrape an advertiser list and append ad creative metadata and preview URLs.
  3. Weekly agency report → Google Ads Scraper → email/Drive: scrape advertiser IDs by region and send CSV/Excel links to an account team.

Main inputs

  • searchTerms — advertiser names to search.
  • domains — advertiser domains to monitor.
  • advertiserIds — direct Google Ads Transparency Center advertiser IDs.
  • region — optional ISO country filter.
  • maxAds — maximum ads per advertiser/domain.

Output

The node returns the Actor run metadata plus dataset results from Apify. Typical records include advertiser information, creative/ad IDs, ad format, first/last shown dates, region data, preview URLs, and extracted creative text/media metadata. See the Apify Store README for the full output schema and examples.
