Live read: Get one campaign
Available on: 
Asks the provider for one campaign now, and gives its payload exactly as the provider sends it. This is the escape hatch from the normalized fields.
The keys are the provider’s. A Meta campaign answers id, name, objective, daily_budget and lifetime_budget; a TikTok campaign answers campaign_id, campaign_name, objective_type, budget_mode and budget_optimize_on; a Google Ads campaign answers id, name, status, budgetAmountMicros and budgetTotalAmountMicros.
The payload holds the fields AdCrunch asks the provider for, and no more. It is not everything the provider knows about the campaign: a bid strategy, a spending limit and a schedule are outside the set AdCrunch reads, so they are in no payload here.
When there is nothing to give
404 — the provider holds no such campaign on this ad account, the provider has no campaign at all, or your organization does not own the advertiser in the path. They are deliberately not told apart: distinguishing them would confirm that a campaign exists to somebody who cannot read it.
/observe/{advertiserId}/campaigns/{id}AuthorizationBearer token · headerrequiredSend Authorization: Bearer <credential>.
Use an API key (acr_…), from the AdCrunch console under Settings → API keys.
The credential names the organization, and no operation takes an organization parameter.
See https://docs.adcrunch.dev/api/authentication.
advertiserIdstringrequiredidstringrequiredThe payload the provider holds now, verbatim.
anyThe 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.
issuesobject[]requiredOne entry for each field that does not match.

bodycookieheadersparamsquerymessagestringrequiredA sentence to show a person. Written to say what to do next. Reworded whenever it can be said better, so never branch on it.

The provider holds no such entity on this ad account, the provider does not have this kind of entity, or your organization does not own the advertiser in the path. They are deliberately not told apart. error is not_found.

This advertiser has no usable connection to its provider. A person must reconnect it. The stored read of the same resource, with advertiserId, still answers what AdCrunch holds.

AdCrunch cannot read this resource live from this advertiser’s provider. It is permanent. Read the stored copy instead, at the same resource without the advertiser in the path and with advertiserId.

The provider refused the request, or could not answer it. Often transient, so a retry is worth making.
platformErroranyrequiredThe provider’s own error object, unchanged. For Meta it carries code, error_subcode, type, error_user_title and error_user_msg — branch on the subcode for anything AdCrunch does not model. It never holds the request AdCrunch sent.
