Temu Ad Library Scraper

The Temu Ad Library (ads.temu.com/library) is a transparency tool required under Article 39 of the EU Digital Services Act, allowing anyone to search and review ads shown on Temu's EU sites over the past year. This scraper extracts structured ad data from the library, enabling competitive research, brand monitoring, and compliance auditing without manual browsing.

Introduction

This Apify Actor scrapes the Temu EU Ad Library to extract advertising data including product names, advertiser details, payer information, active periods, and impression counts. It supports filtering by keyword (across product names, advertiser names, or payer names) and by publication date range. No API key or Temu account is needed.

Use Cases

• Competitive research: Monitor which products and brands are being advertised on Temu in the EU
• Brand monitoring: Track ads mentioning your brand or competitor brands as advertisers or payers
• Compliance auditing: Verify advertising transparency for DSA compliance purposes
• Market analysis: Analyze advertising trends and impression volumes for product categories
• Ad creative research: Discover active ads for specific product niches

Input

Provide the following fields:

• query (string, optional): Keyword to search for. Leave empty to retrieve all available ads
• queryType (integer, optional): What field to search with the keyword — 1 for product name (default), 2 for advertiser name, 3 for who paid
• dateFrom (string, optional): Filter ads published on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD)
• dateTo (string, optional): Filter ads published on or before this date (YYYY-MM-DD)
• maxItems (integer, optional): Maximum number of ads to scrape (default: 10)
• proxyConfiguration (object, optional): Proxy settings for the scraper

"queryType":1,
"dateFrom":"2024-01-01",
"dateTo":"2024-06-30",
"maxItems":200
}
