The last time I worked on AdWords API was about two years ago when ClientLogin was still supported for authorization. I see that no longer is the case now and I must move to using OAuth. I've been having a lot of trouble understanding how to do this.
I'm using server-side Javascript for this and cannot use any client libraries (didn't see any available for AdWords using Javascript anyways). I use Javascript to compose and parse the SOAP requests/responses. Inside the guide it looks like I should just need to send a POST request to this URL with a few parameters (line breaks for readability): https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth? scope=email%20profile& redirect_uri=http://localhost&; response_type=code& client_id=149278968815.apps.googleusercontent.com However, when I try to do this, I receive a 400 Error saying that "The redirect URI in the request: http://localhost did not match a registered redirect URI." I have the Redirect URI set within the Developer Console > APIs & auth > Credentials > OAuth client IDs and in there it shows http://localhost for the authorized Redirect URI. The other option I could find in the guide uses some variation of urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob , but when I try to set the Redirect URI within this section to that, I am unable to and receive this error "Invalid Redirect: urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob must use either http or https as the scheme" All I'm trying to do from this is get an offline token that does not expire for a while (refresh token I believe is the term) that I can then use within the AdWords API calls I need to make. Can someone help me with figuring out what I'm doing wrong here? -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ https://plus.google.com/+GoogleAdsDevelopers/posts =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
