I am working on an application where my clients can connect their google account and see the google ad reports and listing. For this I have create credentials with required API and configured the auth page too. From the page clients is able to authorize the app to read/write the ads however this is only provide me the access token but not the ads account list.
To get the ads account listing I am trying to integration google ads php api where I am passing the access token to fetch the ad account id of connected user.
following is sample of code I am writing but not sure how to proceed to get the ads account id.
require 'google-ads-php/vendor/autoload.php'; // Assuming you have the necessary dependencies installed
// Set up your credentials
$client = new Google_Client();
$client->setAuthConfig('google-credential.json'); // Replace with the path to your credentials JSON file
$client->setAccessType('offline');
use Google\Ads\GoogleAds\GoogleAdsClient;
// Set the access token
$accessToken = 'Token Here';
// Initialize the Google Ads client.
$googleAdsClient = GoogleAdsClient::loadFromStorage();
// Set the access token.
$googleAdsClient->setDeveloperToken($accessToken);
// Make a request to get details about the authenticated customer.
$customerDetails = $googleAdsClient->getCustomer();
// Print or use the client ID as needed.
$clientID = $customerDetails->getResourceName();
echo "Client ID: $clientID";
// Set up your credentials
$client = new Google_Client();
$client->setAuthConfig('google-credential.json'); // Replace with the path to your credentials JSON file
$client->setAccessType('offline');
use Google\Ads\GoogleAds\GoogleAdsClient;
// Set the access token
$accessToken = 'Token Here';
// Initialize the Google Ads client.
$googleAdsClient = GoogleAdsClient::loadFromStorage();
// Set the access token.
$googleAdsClient->setDeveloperToken($accessToken);
// Make a request to get details about the authenticated customer.
$customerDetails = $googleAdsClient->getCustomer();
// Print or use the client ID as needed.
$clientID = $customerDetails->getResourceName();
echo "Client ID: $clientID";
It is not working and returns following error "Uncaught Error: Class "Google\\Ads\\GoogleAds\\GoogleAdsClient" not found"
Please help.

I am not trying to list all the accounts but trying to get the google ad account id for the customer using the access token. Following is the flow of the sequence.
1. Customer comes to the report page where s/he sees a connect button.
2. On this button, the Google auth popup will open with all permission list like reading Google ads, getting email and profile, and google analytic (declare with scope and add in the project too)
3. On authorization I get an access token as it does not return the account id for the connected user.
4. Using the access token I want to get the Google Ad account id (it shows at top right of the Google Ads dashboard)
5. I show the Google ad reports to my customers with this account id.
I have read the documentation but was not able to figure out how to do it with PHP API or with javascript.

In the function `fetchGoogleAdsAccounts` I consume the rest API built in PHP as mentioned in the earlier email.
Can you please let me know which customer ID you are asking for?

Hi,
Thank you for getting back to us.
Thank you for getting back to us.
To retrieve the customer ID, you can use the customer report. You can refer to this sample query to retrieve the customer ID:
In order to investigate your issue, kindly provide us with the uncropped UI screenshot of the Google Ads account with visible customer ID and updated complete API logs (request and response with request-id and request header) generated at your end.
If you are using a client library and haven't enabled the logging yet, I would request you to enable logging for the specific client library that you are using. You can refer to the guide PHP to enable logging at your end. For REST interface requests, you can enable logging via the curl command by using the -i flag.
SELECT customer.id, customer.descriptive_name, customer.resource_name FROM customerAlso, to see the results, you can try making the request to the search and searchStream endpoints.
