GetRefreshToken.php > Error: disabled_client The OAuth client was disabled.

[Jake Wilson]

I am building a simple web app to connect to our Adwords MMC and spit out some reports.

In the Google API Console I created a new Client ID.  I chose Installed Application even though this is a web-based PHP tool I'm making.  This page:

https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/authentication#access_and_refresh_token

says to choose Installed Application if:

• You are just getting started for the first time.
• You want to test our example code and get started quickly.
• You are managing all of your AdWords accounts using a single top level MCC.

All of which apply to us.  Also, the auth.ini says:

; If you do not have a client ID or secret, please create one of type

; "installed application" in the Google API console:

; https://cloud.google.com/console

So anyways, I created an installed application client ID.  I get my Client ID and Client Secret.  I add these to auth.ini along with my Adwords API Key (which is approved) and a unique userAgentID string to identify my application.

At the command line I run the GetRefreshToken.php script, giving me:

Log in to your AdWords account and open the following URL:

https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=5XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fadwords.google.com%2Fapi%2Fadwords%2F&access_type=offline

After approving the token enter the authorization code here:

I log into my Adwords account and then paste in the above URL.  I get this page:

So what am I doing wrong here?

Jake,

In the cloud console, could I trouble you to navigate to the Consent Screen configuration and enter an application name (and any of the other required fields).

Please let me know if it works for you - and I can update relevant documentations.

Thanks,

Hello,

I have the same problem :(

Also filled field required in Consent screen, I have http error 400 and Error: disabled_client.

So what am I doing wrong here?

How enable OAuth client for me project ?

Thanks

[piotr.d...@bonito.pl]

Now, I have other errro:

Error: redirect_uri_mismatch

The redirect URI in the request: urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob did not match a registered redirect URI

So what am I doing wrong here?

Hi,

It's most likely that you've created an OAuth 2.0 "Web application".  Please review our AdWords OAuth 2.0 authentication guide.

In step 6, please select Installed application.

Thanks,

Ray

Thanks, everything works well !

[Ray Tsang (AdWords API Team)]

Sounds great.  Glad it helped.

Cheers,

Hi, I am having the same issue as Jake (above). I'm using the PHP client library to run the script on the command line, but when I paste the url, it says 'the oauth client is disabled'.( I can get it to go one step further by pasting in my client id into the url, as the url created by GetRefreshToken seems to use a different id, but after I enter the code provided into the command line I still get the same message.)

I have the app set as installed and have set the name, url and logo in the console consent screen.

I am using a test account and an unapproved developer token. The token was created about a year ago, could this be the issue?

I am also wondering whether the test account is a valid test account but without connecting to the API its difficult to test this.

Thanks!

Sarah,

Could I trouble you to send me the exact errors that you've received?  The authorization code is long (it sometimes doesn't fully display in the text box) - please make sure the entire string is selected and pasted.

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray

When I execute the url provided by the script I get the following error on screen:

401 Error: disabled_client

The OAuth client was disabled.

Request Details

scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords

response_type=code

access_type=offline

redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob

client_id=[there is a new id generated here]

If I paste my client id into the string and try again it gets me past the consent screen and generates the code, but then I get the following error on the command line:

Your OAuth2 Credentials are incorrect.

Please see the GetRefreshToken.php example.

{

  "error" : "disabled_client",

  "error_description" : "The OAuth client was disabled."

}

I've checked and double checked the code string and my OAuth2 details in auth.ini so not sure whats wrong.

Thanks

Sarah,

Were you using an existing project or a brand new one?  If you haven't tried yet, please create a brand new project.

Thanks!

Ray

[Ray Tsang (AdWords API Team)]

Sarah,

Lastly, please send me screenshot of the cloud console for that project in private.

Thanks!

Hi Ray

I have now managed to work out what the issue was. At some point I started editing the Auth file in examples rather than in lib, whoops. How embarrassing!

Thanks for your help, but I've now retrieved the refresh token and will hopefully get the rest working!
