User Permission Denied for Test MCC

[Jon Weinstock]

Hi Adwords,

I created a production MCC with an account under email address A. I requested a developer token under this account.

I created a test MCC with multiple accounts under email address B.

I authorized B through the Google Developer's Console and used the client id and secret to generate a refresh token. Unfortunately when I try to access any API operation I'm getting a User Permission Denied. Can you advise?

Thank You

Hello Jon,

Please make sure you was logged in under login B when doing the OAuth flow. Most common reason for this error is when you were logged into a different google account (like your personal gmail) and accidentally authorized for the API calls with it.

Having an ADD_OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED error too

Hello Paulo,

This error means you are trying to add a campaign under an MCC account. Please make sure you send an advertiser account ID in the clientCustomerId field.

The OAuth token can be of an MCC account.
