## Arguments

| Argument | Type |   | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `creativeName` | string |   | Name or partial name of the creative to search for. Supports partial matching and is case-insensitive. Omit to list all creatives. |
| `page` | integer |   | Zero-based page index (default: 0). |
| `size` | integer |   | Results per page (default: 10, recommended max: 10). Larger windows blow LLM token budgets — only request more when the caller actually needs it. |

**Request template, not a complete runnable example.** Replace placeholders, empty objects, arrays, and zero values with valid account-specific inputs. Read required fields and nested constraints in the full schema. Confirm the account, connected channels, and referenced assets before calling a write tool.

## Response

Real, from the production server, in **307 ms**. The full response was 14,409 bytes; this is the first part of it. Values that identify a customer or disclose money are replaced with typed placeholders; keys, types and nesting are exactly as returned.
