URGENT: What should I enter to clientId?

[Halil Akın]

I have an MCC account and i am trying to make some tests in Sandbox. I entered my MCC account's email and password. I also entered the developer token as email++TRY. However, I couldn't figure out what to enter to Client id field. Whatever I wrote, it gave me an error. Can you help me on it?

[Ewan Heming]

Five accounts with randomly assigned customer ids are created when you first make a call to the sandbox: Call either the InfoService or ServicedAccountService to list them; you don't need to assign a clientId to call these services.

[Anash P. Oommen]

Hi Halil,

Further to what Ewan mentioned, you can initialize the sandbox by calling CampaignService::get(). When you make the first call, you don't need to provide a customerId.

How do I make that call via PHP? I recently started working on API. Can you send me a code sample?

[Ewan Heming]

If you're using PHP, you could try out the tutorial I put on my blog: http://www.ewanheming.com/2011/12/ppc-software-development/adwords-api/using-the-adwords-api-sandbox

Hope it helps....

Make sure you've got the SOAP and SSL extensions enabled for PHP.

[hakin]

I checked it again both are enabled. What account information should we enter? MCC account or a regular Adwords account? I tried both and still the same error, anyway :( 

[Ewan Heming]

This error message actually looks like you aren't connected to the Internet; are you using a proxy server or something?

[hakin]

I checked that too but I am not behind proxy right now. I am using WAMP and I will try to upload it to my server. I will post if it works on the internet.

[hakin]

I tested that code on server but it is still the same error :(

[Ewan Heming]

You've got the AdWords API server set as http://adwords-sandbox.google.com/, but it should use https; try changing it to https://adwords-sandbox.google.com/ and see if that works....

[hakin]

That's not the problem :( I am still getting the same error. Here is the code.

Hi,

Can you ensure that the URL is accessible from your server?  Perhaps there is a firewall in your network preventing the traffic.

Best,

- Eric

[hakin]

Hi Eric. Thanks for the reply.

Do you mean  https://adwords-sandbox.google.com ?

I am using WAMP and I tried to access above url using Chrome. it redirects me to www.google.com. 

BTW I tried it again with my MCC account and here is the error I got.

I am testing Ewan Heming's code...

[hakin]

Wow it worked now. Thanks

[Anash P. Oommen]

Hi,

The latest version of Adwords API is v201209. If you can point me to the part in documentation where v201109 is mentioned as the latest version, I'll get it fixed.

Cheers,

I am facing the same problem as well ... How did you solve it ... Right now the api version available is v201209. I read that whenever there is a new api released the older one gets defunct in 4 months. At the same time the official client libraries at https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/clientlibraries shows the v201109 to be the latest for PHP. Whichversion should I be using for PHP ?
