I'm using google adwords api to create campaigns and ads. I keep getting this error :Unauthorized CREATE operation in invoking a service's mutate method. I'm using a manager account. I tried with a test account and it was working but with my manager account it doesnt. PS : My developer token has a basic access.


here's my code :https://gist.github.com/RedMoonLight/b2599e5af874ce77974a70e6d1de4194

Hi Nayrouz,

Thank you for reaching out. It looks like you were trying to create ads directly on a manager account which is not allowed. You would need to create ads inside a client customer account.

Thanks and regards,

Hi,
If I create ads using my client customer account, will the ads be visible in my manager account?

Hi Nayrouz,

I work with Xiaoming and let me provide support to your concern.

If you are referring to the Ads section of the manager's UI, then you should also see here the ads created in the client accounts which should be under that manager account.

Let me know if you have further questions.
