    Yes, it's possible to scrape Facebook Ads data through Apify, which is integrated with our platform. Apify offers actors (specialized scrapers) that can extract data from various social media platforms, including Facebook.You can use this capability to see whether companies are running ads on Facebook and other platforms like LinkedIn and Google. This data can be valuable for understanding advertising strategies and market presence.However, please note that when using any scraping tools, it's important to comply with Facebook's terms of service and respect data protection regulations.
