Hello,
I'm trying to create a new campaign (and first, a new campaign budget as a matter of fact) via the API, but I keep getting this:
Error: 3 INVALID_ARGUMENT: Unauthorized CREATE operation in invoking a service's mutate method.

I've followed these instructions [1] 
So basically I have a production ad manager account with a dev token enabled for test accounts at the moment.
I'm trying to create those resources on a different Google account with test ad account enabled (customer_account_id: 6608293656) and an appropriate refresh token.
What am I missing?

Thanks in advance,
Yossi

Managed to tackle it, there was no client test account connected to this manager, seems to be working now!
