Who it’s for

RevOps, marketing ops and developers who keep account data in a CRM, a warehouse or an enrichment workflow.

The problem

Firmographics say how big an account is, not whether it advertises. Checking three ad libraries per account doesn’t scale past a handful.

How to do it in adsrunning

  1. Create a key

    Open API in your account and create a key. The full secret shows once; your first key comes with 50 credits.

  2. Call /v1/advertisers per domain

    It returns the company, LinkedIn totals (total, live, last 365 days), ads by format, and the stored Google and Meta counts. 1 credit.

  3. Check Google and Meta on demand

    Call /v1/google/ads/count or /v1/meta/ads/count. They answer from a check under 30 days old or run a new one; a 202 means the check is running and costs nothing. Repeat after Retry-After. 1 credit when ready.

  4. Write the fields

    Store LinkedIn live ads, LinkedIn ads in the last 365 days, the Google ad count and Meta active ads on each account.

  5. Schedule it

    Run it weekly from n8n or your own job, and compare with last week’s values.

Five ways to use the fields

  1. A “started advertising” alert

    When platforms.linkedin.live goes from 0 to more than 0 between runs, create a task for the account owner.

  2. An ad-active segment

    Tag accounts with ads on any network for ABM or ad-tech campaigns.

  3. Format fit

    Use the formats counts to route video-heavy advertisers to your video offer.

  4. Lead scoring

    Add a point to the account score for each network where the company has ads.

  5. The no-code version

    Import the n8n workflow and send a weekly digest of LinkedIn ads for your accounts to Slack.

Questions

What does a call cost?

GET /v1/advertisers is 1 credit. LinkedIn ad pages cost 1 credit per 25 ads returned. Pending checks, empty 204s and errors before the debit are free.

Can I add Google and LinkedIn counts together?

Keep them separate. A Google count describes a domain, which several companies can share.

What if a company isn’t in the library?

Google and Meta counts work from any domain. For LinkedIn, an ad collection looks the domain up in the wider company directory.
