Hi,

We are using the Google Ads API to download the adwords report, and we have created a cloud project for OAuth authentication as desktop app.

Before I publish the app, I would like to check if the desktop app is only accessible to specific users, or users who have access to the adwords account.

Would you please advise where I can get the setting?

I was able to limit the user in the test mode. However, the token get expired every 7 days, which will not work if we want to put the API call in schedule without regenerate the token.

Thanks,

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team. Please refer to our oauth-cloud-project guideline for a comparison between Desktop and Web App flows.

The Desktop App flow appears to suit your needs.
