Re: Strangely low search volumes for local exact match keywords

Re: Which Access Level I need to use the API?

2011-02-09 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi Dymytry, AdWords API follows the access rights in the web UI, so with a ReadOnly access, you should be able to do get() calls, but mutate() calls should fail. I believe a Standard access should be enough for covering all features of AdWords API. Cheers, Anash P. Oommen, AdWords API Advisor.
