Hi everybody,

Quick question.

We hired a developer to set up a Google Adwords app and he had a copy of all our code along with our  CLIENT_ID and  CLIENT_SECRET
and refresh token.

If we create a new a new CLIENT_ID and  CLIENT_SECRET, and set that in the application will that be enough to secure us from this developer being able to run the application on our Adword's accounts ?

Thanks.

Hello,

The developer token, client identifier, client secret and refresh token are required to make AdWords API call. The developer token could be applied using the manager account (MCC). You have client identifier, client secret. You could generate the refresh token by following the steps given in the OAuth2.0 guide. Please check out getting started guide and OAuth2.0 guide for more details.

Thanks,
Umesh, AdWords API Team.
