Creating Ads on behalf of others Web Application Authenticated users

[Morten Justesen]

Hi all,

Is it possible, for a web application, to create Ads or Campaigns on Google on behalf of a user, that's authenticated with their google account through the web app ?

Hi Morten,

Yes, it is possible to create campaigns and ads using web application type. Using this authentication type, you can authenticate as any user who has been granted permission to your app and access the AdWords account data. However, it is required that you have callback URLs in order for you to use this type. Could you confirm if this is your current scenario?

If indeed this is your scenario, then you can use this authentication type, and follow this guide on how to authenticate in the API. Let me know if this helps.

Thanks,

Vincent
