## meta_ads/ad-transcript

`GET /v1/meta_ads/ad-transcript`

The spoken words of a Meta video ad as text. transcript is null when the video has no speech — that is the honest answer, not an error.

*Ad transcript*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | yes | Ad archive id of a VIDEO ad. — e.g. `4439810673014351` |
| `dry_run` | no | Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. — e.g. `1` |

**Cost:** 5 credits at list price per successful uncached response; variable-cost operations may quote or settle a different charge. Confirmed uncharged or refunded failures report zero. Pending reconciliation can report credits_used:null; retain request_id and the original idempotency key.
