Questions about FacebookAds actor results

Hi everyone,

I am currently evaluating the Apify Facebook Ad Actor for a client project, however I have many questions about the data returned by the scraper and I can't find any reliable doc/infos.

Here are my main questions:

- For now, it seems that the scraper canot load images and data of private pages. Is there any plan to support that ?
- 
adid
adid
 field is always set to 
"0"
"0"
. With that name, I would expect it to be the unique id of the app. Can you tell me what this field is for ?
- 
adArchiveID
adArchiveID
: I'd guess that's the id of the add archive, however its always present, even for ads that are still active. Can you tell me what this field is for ?
- Same questions about 
archiveTypes
archiveTypes
 and 
categories
categories
 that contains array of numbers. I can't find any info about what they represent.
- 
pageID
pageID
, for this one, I guess it's the id of the facebook page associated to the ad ? My question is : is this field always present ? Does it always reference the id of a facebook page or can it reference the id of an instagram page or something else ?
- Does 
entityType
entityType
 represent the type of the facebook page associated to the app ?

All infos you can give are very appreciated! It would be very helpful if you could point me to a doc or any resource that describe the content of the actor result, as everything is not easily guessable only by the property name.

Thanks a lot for your help !
