How to we create ads?

[la...@monera.dk]

Hi,

We currently use the Google Adwords API in production to get impressions and clicks from different ads. That's great, but now we also need to able to create new ads.

When we try to create an ad we get the following error:

AdWordsApiException: One or more AdWords API errors have occurred. \r\n\r\nOperationAccessDeniedReason.ACTION_NOT_PERMITTED. (Error: OperationAccessDenied.ACTION_NOT_PERMITTED, FieldPath: , Trigger:

[10:27]  

class com.google.ads.api.serviceimpls.campaignmgmt.ad.adgroupad.MutateAction

[10:27]  

--

How do we fix this? Do we need to fill out a new application?

Hi,

The OperationAccessDenied.ACTION_NOT_PERMITTED error occurs when you don't have the authorization to invoke a service's method. This will be because you are using the credentials associated with a read-only login to create ads. You'll need to provide either standard or administrative access to this login to be able to make changes to your account. This article lists various features available for each access level.
