Hi,

I want to apply for an API Key for Google Ads API for the purpose of custom reporting.
When I filled in the form at MCC level I got this message:

"The user does not have permission to perform this action"

So I'm wondering what level of access does my account need?

Thanks for reading!

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

So our team can better assist you, could you share with us the following details below?

  • MCC account ID
  • Screenshot where the error was encountered
  • Could you confirm if you're accessing the application form directly from the API center and encountered the said error?
  • Could you confirm what access level the user you are currently logged as?

Please send the requested details via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Regards,
