Re: API with Limited Access
Hi Anash, Our client have added our account under their MCC with read-only access. We have also created our own MCC but we have not yet been granted approval for the developer token. What are the next steps? Can you please advice. Cheers. On Friday, April 25, 2014 10:41:33 PM UTC+3, Anash P. Oommen (AdWords API Team) wrote: Hi, Yes, this can be done. Ask your client to invite a user from your company to manage their accounts (instead of linking it under your MCC), and give that user reporting-only permissions as explained in https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/1704346?hl=en. Then use that shared login email to make calls to the client account. All get() calls will succeed, all mutate() calls will fail. Cheers, Anash P. Oommen, AdWords API Advisor.

API with Limited Access
Dears, We are developing a C# application that requires API access to the AdWords account of one of our clients. We found out that the only way is to link the client's account to our AdWords developer account.
