Re: User doesn't have permission to access customer. Note: If you're accessing a client customer, the manager's customer id must be set in the 'login-customer-id' header. See https://developers.google

Hmmm. As far as I understand it, the Customer ID used in the URL should be 
the Linked Customer ID. Basically, that's the customer ID where you wish to 
add, modify, or remove data. And you have to be granted permission by the 
other Google Adwords account to be able to do that linkage. The Login 
Customer ID, however, is what I use in the REST header to be the Google 
Adwords account of the account used for the API calls (ie, my developer 
account). The only reason I would make them the same ID is when in fact 
they might be, such as someone using one single Google Adwords account to 
not only do the API call but to affect the same account where you placed 
the API call. In my particular case, I'm working with multiple clients, and 
so I have my Login Customer ID, and then multiple Linked Customer IDs.

So, yes, you are correct if you're likely doing the API call from the same 
account where you wish to make this change. But for other readers of this 
post who have multiple clients, I wanted to address this so that they are 
clear as well. The documentation is not very clear on this.

Hi,

I found the issue. I was passing correctly the *login-customer-id* the
issue was in the URL
https://googleads.googleapis.com/v11/customers/*[CUSTOMER_ID]*
/customerClientLinks:mutate

Google says *[CUSTOMER_ID]* should be customer id but it should be
equal to *login-customer-id
== [CUSTOMER_ID]*

So when I pass the same ID to both parameters API works.
