Hi Steve,

Thank you for the clarification. Could you provide me with your full request 
and response logs, your Customer ID for which you're experiencing this issue, 
and the user email that's encountering this issue? Also, could you clarify 
which step you're experiencing this issue from these steps? If you're not 
experiencing an issue from those steps, could you clarify which service you're 
calling that causes this error? You can provide the logs by using "reply 
privately to author", or email the logs to us at googleadsapi-supp...@google.com

Thank you,
Bryan, Google Ads API Team

Hi Bryan,

I can assure you the OAuth2 credentials were indeed created with a valid 
Google ads Account

Hi Steve,

Thank you for the update and the logs. The NOT_ADS_USER error usually occurs 
when the login used to generate the access token is not associated with any 
Google Ads account. Could you check to make sure the email address used to 
generate the OAuth2 credentials is associated with your Google Ads account? Let 
me know if you have any further concerns.

Thank you,
Bryan, Google Ads API Team

Hi Bryan,
Yes, I am using a service account and must continue to use a service

RE: Can't get service account to work with Ads & Analytics APIs

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi Josh,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Looking at your logs the issue is with your 
OAuth Client Credentials. I see that you’re using a Service Account for your 
client credentials. I’d first like to strongly recommend that you use OAuth2 
installed application flow instead of service accounts to access AdWords API. 
This is a simpler alternative that achieves the same goal, as setting up 
service account access tends to be complex. However, if you would like to 
continue with service accounts, could you please make sure that you’ve 
correctly configured your client credentials using these steps? Let me know if 
you have further questions.

Thank you,
Bryan, Google Ads API Team

Can't get service account to work with Ads & Analytics APIs

[Josh R.]

Hello,

I need someone to help me understand what's needed to actually get data out 
of the Ads & Analytics API. I'm working with a client that wants me to pull 
in data from their Google Ads and Analytics data sources, do some tweaking, 
and upload it into a Google Sheet. I've looked through every document I can 
find about the client libraries, sample code, examples, OAuth, service 
accounts, and credentials and I can't figure out what's wrong. I should add 
I'm a senior backend engineer so I'm not new to APIs. 

In working through the documentation this is what has been done so far. The 
client has made a project, has made an OAuth credential, has made a service 
account, and has enabled the Google Ads API, Google Analytics Reporting 
API, and the Google Sheets API. They have sent me the client_id/secret, and 
the .json file for the service account. 

I've managed to use the sample here 
to
 
create an OAuth token. However when I try to run this sample 

 
I run into the following error: 

Request with ID "None" failed with status "UNAUTHENTICATED" and includes 
the following errors:
Request made: ClientCustomerId:  , Host: 
googleads.googleapis.com:443, Method: 
/google.ads.googleads.v3.services.GoogleAdsService/SearchStream, RequestId: 
None, IsFault: True, FaultMessage: User in the cookie is not a valid Ads 
user.
Error with message "User in the cookie is not a valid Ads user.".

My yaml file looks like this:

path_to_private_key_file: './service_account.json'
delegated_account: 'x.iam.gserviceaccount.com'
developer_token: 'fd'

I don't have a Google account that's associated with their company if that 
matters. Can someone help me debug what's wrong here?

Josh
