--- title: "Stored read: List asset groups" method: GET path: "/observe/asset-groups" tags: ["Asset groups"] --- # Stored read: List asset groups `GET /observe/asset-groups` ## Request - Base URL: `https://api.adcrunch.dev` - URL: `https://api.adcrunch.dev/observe/asset-groups` - Auth: HTTP bearer **Available on:** [![Google Ads](/providers/gads.svg)](https://docs.adcrunch.dev/connect/providers) Lists the asset groups of every ad account your organization connects, newest first. ## Google Ads only, and Performance Max only An asset group is Performance Max’s delivery container. A Performance Max campaign has **no ad groups and no ads**: the asset group holds the headlines, images, videos and audience signals that Google’s automation assembles into placements itself. Every other provider lists nothing here, and that is normal rather than a failure. ## A sibling, not a child An asset group is a child of a **campaign** and a **sibling** of an ad group — not a layer beneath one. That is why it takes `campaignId` and never `adGroupId`, and why a Performance Max campaign answers nothing under `/observe/ad-groups` or `/observe/ads`. ## Query parameters - `ids` string: Ids to filter on, separated by commas. An id is the bare id its provider gives. - `cursor` string: The `nextCursor` of the previous page. Omit it to get the first page. Send it with no change, and with the same filters as the request that answered it: a cursor from a different query gets a 400 `invalid_cursor`. Do not build or change a cursor. - `limit` integer: The greatest number of rows on the page, from 1 to 500. The default is 100. A greater value gets a 400, with `error` of `invalid_request`. - `advertiserId` string: Read one ad account from what AdCrunch holds, prefixed `acc_`. One your organization does not own answers an empty list rather than a failure. To ask the provider instead, put the advertiser in the path. - `provider` union: Read one provider. Omit it to read every provider your organization connects. - 'meta' - 'tiktok' - 'snapchat' - 'gads' - 'dv360' - 'x' - 'openai' - `status` 'ACTIVE' | 'PAUSED' | 'DELETED' | 'ARCHIVED': Read one status, normalized across the providers. TikTok `ENABLE` and `DISABLE` are read here as `ACTIVE` and `PAUSED`. - `campaignId` string: Read only what this campaign holds. Send the bare id its provider gives, which is the `campaignId` every row answers. ## Response `200` The matching asset groups, and how many there are in all. Only Google Ads advertisers answer rows. - object - `data` object[], required: The matching rows. From the store, the row AdCrunch stored last comes first; from the provider, the provider’s own order. An empty array means nothing matched, which is a normal answer and not a failure. - `advertiserId` string, required: The advertiser that owns it, prefixed `acc_`. - `createdAt` number, nullable, required: When AdCrunch first stored this row. **Null when the row was read live**: AdCrunch holds no copy of it. `createdAt`, `updatedAt` and `deletedAt` are AdCrunch’s own times, so all three are null together on a live row. - `createdTime` number, nullable, required: When the provider created the entity. This is the provider’s own time, so a live row carries it. Null where the provider reports none. - `currency` string, nullable, required: The account currency, ISO 4217. Every row of one advertiser carries the same one. Null when AdCrunch does not know it yet. - `deletedAt` number, nullable, required: When AdCrunch marked the row deleted. A listing never carries a deleted row, so this is null. - `id` string, required: The id the provider gives, with no prefix. It is unique for one provider and one type, and it may legitimately recur across two types or two providers. - `name` string, required: The name at the provider. - `path` string, required: The ancestors and this entity, ids joined by `/`, oldest first. This is what makes a subtree one string comparison. - `provider` string, required: The ad platform: `meta`, `tiktok` or `gads`. Those three are the providers whose entities AdCrunch reads, and https://docs.adcrunch.dev/connect/providers says how deep each one goes. - `status` 'ACTIVE' | 'PAUSED' | 'DELETED' | 'ARCHIVED', required: The status, normalized across the providers. TikTok `ENABLE` and `DISABLE` read here as `ACTIVE` and `PAUSED`. - `updatedAt` number, nullable, required: When AdCrunch last rewrote this row. Null if it never changed. - `updatedTime` number, nullable, required: When the provider last edited the entity. Null where the provider reports none. - `budgetLevel` 'campaign' | 'ad_group', nullable, required: Where the budget of this entity’s campaign lives. `campaign` when the campaign carries it — Meta Advantage campaign budget, TikTok Campaign Budget Optimization, and every Google Ads campaign. `ad_group` when each ad group carries its own. Null on a TikTok campaign whose payload does not say. - `campaignId` string, nullable, required: The campaign it belongs to, as the bare id its provider gives. Null only when the stored path of the row names no campaign. - `type` string, required: The type the provider uses, kept as the provider writes it: `asset_group`. Only Google Ads has an asset group. The resource names the concept, and the row keeps the provider’s own word, because a Meta `adset` and a Google Ads `ad_group` are not the same object. - `nextCursor` string: Send this value as `cursor` to get the next page. It is absent on the last page. ## Other responses - `400`: The request does not match the schema of this operation: a field is missing or has the wrong type, or the body is not valid JSON. `error` is `invalid_request`, and `issues` names each field. Nothing was changed. Or AdCrunch cannot use the `cursor`: it cannot read it, or the cursor belongs to a different query. Then `error` is `invalid_cursor`. Send the `nextCursor` of the previous page with no change, or omit `cursor` to get the first page. - `401`: No API key, or one that does not resolve. See the security scheme. `error` is `unauthorized`. - `402`: The organization has no active subscription. An owner subscribes at `paywallUrl`. `error` is `organization_unentitled`. - `403`: The caller does not hold `observe:read`. `error` is `forbidden`. --- [API](https://skmtc.dev/adcrunch/apis/adcrunch-api.md) · [All operations](https://skmtc.dev/adcrunch/apis/adcrunch-api/llms.txt) · [OpenAPI document](https://skmtc.dev/adcrunch/apis/adcrunch-api/revisions/a420ba80914f?raw)
