Google Adwords/Ads API Invalid_grant error Bad Request

[pratik patel]

Hi,

If we generate new access token and refresh token and after that it will work all requests using google ads api/ adwords api. 

But after some days if we going to try same call giving error 

'Client error: `POST https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token` resulted in a `400 Bad Request` response:

{

  "error": "invalid_grant",

  "error_description": "Bad Request"

}

We get access type is offline so we not want to generate refresh token again and again.

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. Can you please try regenerating your OAuth2 credentials along with the refresh token and see is this behavior persists?

Please let us know if you continue to see this issue.

Hi

I'm receiving similar kind of error to the queries above by @anay. This is my third time that I've regenerated my OAuth2 credentials.

I see the following errors:

GuzzleHttp\Exception\ClientException: Client error: `POST https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token` resulted in a `400 Bad Request` response:

{

  "error": "invalid_grant",

  "error_description": "Token has been expired or revoked."

}

Thanks,

Hi Ramesh,

Can you please reply privately with the complete request and response logs so that we can have a closer look? Also, can you please confirm that you have enabled the Ads API in your Console project?

Thanks,

Hi,

Thank you for the response. I've created new OAut2 credentials with publishing status of 'In Production' and it's working fine till now.

I think, the problem might have occurred in first place because previously OAuth2 Credentials might have been created when publishing status was 'In Testing' which expires in 7 days.

If problem persists in future, I'll contact you privately. BTW: How do I contact you privately?

Thanks,

Ramesh

I change the status of it and will check after 7 days.
