Report Customer customer.descriptive_name customer.resource_name empty

[Philipp Meier]

Hi

I would like to get the accounts name from a clientId. So I implemented the customer report API (https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/customer) which works for some attributes (i.e. customer.id, customer.currency_code) but not for the two I'm looking for: 

customer.descriptive_name

customer.resource_name

Is there a specific reason why these attributes can not be queried? I'm using this unofficial NodeJS API Client which could have an impact as well: https://opteo.com/dev/google-ads-api

Thanks and best regards

Hi,

I figured it out with a mistake on my side: the account name was indeed empty and I had to set it first in the account's settings page.

Anyways thanks for the responsive support!
