New Fields

The Ad Library API provides more data than it used to, and now Radlibrary can handle it. All of the current fields are supported, which at this time include:

  • id
  • ad_creation_time
  • ad_creative_bodies
  • ad_creative_link_captions
  • ad_creative_link_descriptions
  • ad_creative_link_titles
  • ad_delivery_start_time
  • ad_delivery_stop_time
  • ad_snapshot_url
  • bylines
  • currency
  • estimated_audience_size
  • impressions
  • languages
  • page_id
  • page_name
  • publisher_platforms
  • spend
  • demographic_distribution
  • delivery_by_region

Nested Columns

The Ad Library API has evolved to return richer data for some fields which may be multi-valued. For instance, the publisher_platform field can contain multiple values: Facebook, Instagram, etc. Converting responses to a tibble now makes these into list columns.

Similarly, some values like demographic_distribution and delivery_by_region return very rich data. Previously, it was necessary to request this data separately as a geo_table or demographic_table. Now these values are converted into nested tibble columns. See vignette("nested_columns") for more.

Other small-to-medium changes

  • Ads now have a unique identifier simply called id. This is now the favored unique identifier rather than ad_snapshot_url, which was previously a required field in all calls to the API.
  • Converting a data response to tibble will no longer create a whole bunch of unused columns for fields that weren't requested. Only the fields that were requested are included now.
