# ads_query_ad (https://sellersheetai.com/docs/mcp-api/tools/ads_query_ad)

> Query (read) ads (creatives) across ALL ad products via the unified Amazon Ads API v1.

Access: **READ** · toolset amazon_ads · family ads.v1

In the v1 model an "ad" is the creative unit inside an ad group; a sponsored ad's advertised product is inside its creative (productCreative for SP, componentCreative for SB and SD, videoCreative for ST) — ad associations (ads_query_ad_association) are AMAZON_DSP's ad-to-ad-group links, not product links. Use it for a targeted read of current settings (by id, name or state); for a whole-account dump use ads_ad_export, and for spend or sales use query_report_data.

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `store` | string | yes | the store ref `<store>-<CC>` (name-country, e.g. 'myStore-US') — one of get_user_context's store_refs, verbatim. |
| `countryCode` | string | yes | the Ads profile's 2-letter country code (e.g. 'US'). |
| `body` | object | yes | the filter object — adProductFilter is required, e.g. {adProductFilter: {include: ['SPONSORED_PRODUCTS']}, adGroupIdFilter: {include: ['<adGroupId>']}}. |

## Result

- Amazon's payload in data.result.
- `data.result` — the matching ads — the server follows nextToken for up to 5 pages; maxResults caps the total.
- `data.nextToken` — set when more remain — call again with the SAME filters plus this nextToken (a token-only body 400s).
