Hi,

we act like 3rd party making Adwords API calls on behalf of clients.
Clients are from different countries and want to use UI with their
native language.
Question: is it possible to get error messages from Adwords API
localized? If so how.
Example: say Norvegian client creates new TextAd in hour system but
when making Adwords API create Textad call I get Policy violation
error or else. Error and details come in english. I want to get it in
Norvegian to be able to show it to client consistent with his choise
of UI language that is norvegian.

Thanks and merry Christmas

Hi,

The policy error messages will be returned in the language of the user/
account that made the request. The language doesn't change based on
the clientEmail or clientCustomerId headers, so if you use an MCC user
to make your requests the errors will always be returned in the
language of the MCC user.

Best,
