## tiktok_ads/search

`GET /v1/tiktok_ads/search`

Search TikTok's public Ads Library by keyword or advertiser: ad id, advertiser, run dates, audience and spend bands, creative media. Paged by cursor.

*Ad search*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `query` | yes | Keyword (or pass advertiser for advertiser-specific results). — e.g. `gymshark` |
| `advertiser` | no | Advertiser name — resolved through TikTok typeahead first. — e.g. `Gymshark` |
| `cursor` | no | Opaque cursor from the previous page. |
| `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:** 4 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.
