Hello,

You are getting the "no campaigns were found" message because you are using a top-level MCC account (Manager account) for making API calls like GetCampaigns, AddCampaigns. Top level MCC account Id(manager account) can be used only for account management (e.g. Create Account, Get Account Hierarchy etc.). 

You could create an AdWords account and set that account id to clientCustomerId in ads.properties(of Java client library) file and make the API calls other than the account management(e.g. GetCampaigns, AddCampaigns) from our example code of client library. 

Thanks,

Umesh, AdWords API Team.
