problems getting refresh token

[Markus Tjoa]

Hello,

I'm a bit at a loss here. I'm trying to set up a website, where I can display some metrics of my google ads campaigns.

I downloaded the Google Ads API Client Library for PHP at https://github.com/googleads/google-ads-php and followed the instructions there:

Got all the dependencies, installed the client library via Composer, got myself a developer token and so on...

After creating credentials in api center, I ran the  GenerateUserCredentials.php file in a console, but this gave me an error 400 redirect_uri_mismatch with a hint to " redirect_uri: http://127.0.0.1:43691" - so I added port 43691 to my redirect uri and tried again.

So far, so good,

but a click on next brings me to a connection failed page stating that no connection to 127.0.0.1:43691 could be established. I tried with different browsers and on different pcs, but with no luck...

Can anyone tell me, what's going wrong here?

kind regards,

Markus

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

Since you mentioned that you’re using OAuth Playground to generate my refresh token, could you confirm if you’ve followed this guide to add a line with: https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground under Authorized redirect URIs while setting up OAuth 2.0 web client app?If not added said above URL, then you may refer to the above provided guide for Playground, and let us know if issue persists.

Thanks,

Hello Nirmita,

I didn't use Oauthplayground, I followed the insturctions on https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/oauth/cloud-project. I din't realize, there was a different way of doing this by using https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground.

Anyway: I tried it using OAuthplayground, and it worked :)

Thanks for your help

Kind Regards
