Hi,

I just tried to setup google ads api, after creating a test manager account, I tried to create a test account under it, however it reports below information:

To create new accounts, link an existing account
This needs to be a Google Ads account that
      • has spent more than $1,000
      • has a history of policy compliance
Once the account is linked, you'll get access to account creation within a day

What is it really about?

Hi,

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

Please be informed that before adding sub-accounts, you will need to link an existing account that has a spending history of over $1000 and has a history of policy compliance. For further details, please refer to the "create new Google Ads account" documentation.

If you want more assistance on this, since account-related issues are handled by the Google Ads Product support team, I would recommend reaching out to the Google Ads Product support team, as they are better equipped to address your concern. Please note that our team can only assist with technical queries or concerns related to the Google Ads API.

This message is in relation to case "ref:!00D1U01174p.!5004Q02tJNmK:ref" (ADR-00242160)

Hi,

Kindly ignore the previous response.

To create a sub account while you are in your test manager account, Click "Accounts > click '+' > Create new account" and fill out the form. Any client accounts you create from your test manager account are automatically test accounts.
