Question about permissions when using Google Ads API in GAQL

[寺田将志]

We created a GAQL that extracts ad data and writes the results to a spreadsheet.

However, a problem has arisen, even though the GAQL is exactly the same, it can be executed or not (execution error) depending on the user.

We have given everyone equal editing privileges to the spreadsheet, so we are wondering if there is a problem with the GAQL execution permissions.

Please let me know if there are any priority checks that should be made on the permissions when executing GAQL!

To get a more detailed investigation from you,

・The Google Ad account that ran the GAQL
・Users who can run GAQL and users who can't

We can also provide you with the following information.

I'm sorry for the long post.
Please accept my best regards.

Hi,

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

For executing a GAQL query for a Google Ads account, the user executing it must have access to that Google Ads account. You can check whether a user has access to a Google Ads account or not by navigating to the Admin -> Access and Security -> Users in that Google Ads account. The execution will also depend upon the access level of the user. Please check the About access levels in your Google Ads Account article to know about the access levels and allowed operations for each access level.

I hope this clarifies your issue. Feel free to reach out for any further concerns/queries.
