Among its most powerful features is the TikTok Creative Center, where top-performing ads are showcased, providing marketers with direct insight into what's working on the platform.
In this article, we’ll dive deep into how to utilize the GET et ads detail endpoint from the LuckData TikTok API to fetch comprehensive ad information from TikTok Creative Center and demonstrate how to transform that data into a powerful analytics system.
1. Why Scrape TikTok Ad Details?
As digital ad budgets rise, the need for performance-driven marketing has become critical. Gaining access to competitors' ad performance and creative strategies gives brands a serious advantage. Here are a few key use cases:

Market Trend Analysis: Identify hot products, features, or trends through commonly featured themes in ads.
2. What Is the GET et ads detail API?
This endpoint retrieves comprehensive metadata for a specific ad from the TikTok Creative Center. You simply provide a URL of a public ad detail page, and the API returns detailed structured information such as the advertiser's name, creative assets, engagement stats, and targeting regions.
Key Parameters:

3. Advanced Applications: Turning Raw Data Into Value
1. Automated Ad Leaderboard
By collecting multiple ad URLs and using this API regularly, you can build an automated ad leaderboard that shows:
Top 10 most viewed ads this week
Creative trends by industry (beauty, tech, food, etc.)
Optimal posting times based on engagement patterns
2. Content Analysis Using NLP
Use NLP libraries like spaCy or OpenAI embeddings to analyze ad copy:
Extract common phrases like "limited offer", "must-have", "exclusive"
Analyze tone of voice (e.g., excitement vs. reassurance)
Cluster ads by themes (e.g., humor, emotion, product showcase)
This data can feed into copywriting strategies and creative concept testing.
3. Cross-Platform Advertising Intelligence
Combine GETet ads detail with other endpoints like:
get user info: to analyze the advertiser’s profilecomment list by video: to evaluate user sentiment and feedback
This allows for multi-dimensional ad analysis across brand, content, and audience reactions.
4. Practical Demo: Build Your Ad Intelligence Table
Let’s assume you have 10 ad URLs you want to process:
ad_urls = ["https://ads.tiktok.com/business/creativecenter/topads/7221117041168252930/",
"https://ads.tiktok.com/business/creativecenter/topads/7219991234567890000/",
# more...
]
all_results = []
for url in ad_urls:
res = requests.get(
f'https://luckdata.io/api/tiktok-api/GaDenQBi7xCc?url={url}',
headers=headers
)
data = res.json()
all_results.append({
"Advertiser": data.get("advertiser_name"),
"Impressions": data.get("impressions"),
"CTR": data.get("ctr"),
"Video URL": data["creative_assets"].get("video_url"),
"Description": data.get("ad_description")
})
This script generates structured data for each ad, which you can export to Excel, visualize on dashboards, or store in a database for analytics.
