On Manager Maximum account limit

[Aidis Stukas]

Is it possible to request for maximum account limit in advance prior to 
reaching the 
"Highest amount accounts total spent in a month, from the last 12 months" 
limit?

Our project is planning to have a sudden start with 1000+ sub accounts. And 
now we are limited to 50 sub-accounts only.

Maybe there is some kind of form we could fill in, or send an email, and 
explain the situation in more details to get the maximum account limit 
increase?

Reading Output only field value on ConversionAction creation

[Aidis Stukas]

Is it possible to read Output only field, for example tag_snippets[], when 
creating a ConversionAction.

I did enable MUTABLE_RESOURCE. It does help a bit as it returns useful 
information. But it does not return tag_snippets field.

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v8/ConversionAction#tag_snippets[]

How to get customer status (SUSPENDED etc)

[Aidis Stukas]

I am looking for a way to get Customer status.
I was only able to find campaign.serving_status. But the suspension itself 
is active on Customer level, right? Is there a way to get customer.status 
or something similar?

Acquiring rights to add user account to my managed accounts.

[Aidis Stukas]

I am new to oauth and google ads API. I am trying to figure this out for a 
couple of days now. Please put me on a right way.

I have a manager account.
I would like users to be able to ask to be managed by my account.

I tried using gapi.js to generate
 access_token and id_token.

```
gapi.signin2.render("my-signin2", {
scope: "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords";,
```
What can I do with them?

I am using https://github.com/googleads/google-ads-python library


Just to be clear I would like to provide example:

   1. user at mail.com who manages google ads account 777-777-7 goes 
   into sampleapp.com 
   2. user is asked to grant access to adwords scope
   3. user accepts
   4. access_token is generated( is this the correct way) and sent to the 
   backend
   5. ...what happens here?
   6. ...manager account 888-888-8 is granted rights to add 777-777 
   account to managed accounts
   7. manager account initiates linking 
   
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/account-management/linking-manager-accounts)
   8. client account accepts linking 
   
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/account-management/linking-manager-accounts)

It looks like step 8 requires initiating client with configuration only for 
that particular user? Or is there a way doing that without acquiring 
clients client_id, client_secret, refresh_token and so on?

Re: Acquiring rights to add user account to my managed accounts.

[Aidis Stukas]

Hi Mitchell,

Thanks for confirming that its a two step process: I have to use my 
credentials to send link request and user credentials have to be used to 
accept the request.

Thanks for the links, I have visited them previously, but one part is still 
not clear to me.

As for user, I was only able to get access_token and id_token. Are these 
sufficient? 
>From the flow that you mentioned it sounds like that I should have users 
developer_token, client_id and client_secret. Just to clarify, its a user 
account that I do not control. I think that the user should not be sending 
these to me.


Some brainstorming thoughts:

   - I stumbled upon some mentions settings Bearer Authentication header to 
   access token value. Maybe this is something what I should look at. (There 
   is no mention of it in google-ads-python library)
   - Maybe I should to steps before linking account? For example, I should 
   be able to somehow list customer id that can be managed by the user @ 
   mail.com who authorized me to manage his Ads accounts.


Thanks again and
let me know if I can provide any info to make this easier.

One more detail i found at 
https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server
> After obtaining an access token*, your application can use that token to 
authorize API requests on behalf of a given user account or service account*. 


Is that true for Google Ads Api too?

Re: Acquiring rights to add user account to my managed accounts.

[Aidis Stukas]

I tried this sample

GET /v4/customers/CUSTOMER_ID HTTP/1.1
Host: googleads.googleapis.com
Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN <-- Here I use access token 
generated by gapi.js library sign in.
developer-token: DEVELOPER_TOKEN   

It seems to be working fine. Is this the right way?
I wonder how to do that in google.ads.googleads python library?

Re: Acquiring rights to add user account to my managed accounts.

[Aidis Stukas]

Hi Mitchell,

The solution I was looking for was this:


from google.ads.google_ads.client import GoogleAdsClient
from google.oauth2.credentials import Credentials

DEVELOPER_TOKEN = 'foobar'
access_token = 'foobar'
credentials = Credentials(access_token)
client = GoogleAdsClient(credentials, DEVELOPER_TOKEN)


I think I don't need refresh token as authorization is required only to 
link the accounts.
After adding users accounts to managed account I think I will not need 
their tokens to make changes.

Thanks!
