php how to specify login-customer-id in the request

[ma zhiwei]

Hi, I am using google-ads-api to fetch campaign performance data, but I was stop by the following error.

"message": "The caller does not have permission", "code": 7, "status": "PERMISSION_DENIED"

My PHP code: 

```

$customerId = "Manager ID";

$oAuth2Credential = (new OAuth2TokenBuilder())->fromFile("google_ads_php.ini")->build();

$googleAdsClient = (new GoogleAdsClientBuilder())->fromFile("google_ads_php.ini")

->withOAuth2Credential($oAuth2Credential)

->withLoginCustomerId($customerId)

->build();

$googleAdsServiceClient = $googleAdsClient->getGoogleAdsServiceClient();

$customerServiceClient = $googleAdsClient->getCustomerServiceClient();

// Issues a request for listing all accessible customers.

$accessibleCustomers = $customerServiceClient->listAccessibleCustomers();

print 'Total results: ' . count($accessibleCustomers->getResourceNames()) . PHP_EOL;

// Iterates over all accessible customers' resource names and prints them.

foreach ($accessibleCustomers->getResourceNames() as $resourceName) {

printf("Customer resource name: '%s'%s", $resourceName, PHP_EOL);

$customer_id = explode("/", $resourceName)[1];

$query = "SELECT campaign.id, campaign.name, campaign.status FROM campaign ORDER BY campaign.id";

$stream = $googleAdsServiceClient->search($customer_id, $query);

echo json_encode($stream);

foreach ($stream->iterateAllElements() as $googleAdsRow) {

printf(

"Campaign with ID %d and name '%s' was found.%s",

$googleAdsRow->getCampaign()->getId(),

$googleAdsRow->getCampaign()->getName(),

PHP_EOL

);

}

}

```

The error in log: 

```

My question is how to specify login-customer-id in the request by php. And what's reason about this error.

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Upon checking the error logs, it seems that the issue ‘USER_PERMISSION_DENIED’ occurred due to incorrectly setting the 'login-customer-id’ in the request. Note that when a user doesn't have permission to access a customer and you’re accessing a client customer then the manager's customer ID must be set in the 'login-customer-id’ in the header request.

That being said, you may refer to this documentation on how to specify the login-customer-id property in the request properly.

In addition, you should need included if you also have the ads properties file setup that corresponds to the library that you are using (e.g. google_ads_php.ini for PHP), as shown here.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

My question is how to specify login-customer-id in the request by php, like this:  header("login-customer-id: 1234567890"); ?

I have specified the login-customer-id when I built googleAdsClient object, like this: 

$googleAdsClient = (new GoogleAdsClientBuilder())->fromFile("google_ads_php.ini")

->withOAuth2Credential($oAuth2Credential)

->withLoginCustomerId($customerId)

->build();

I hope you can tell me the exact php code, thanks a lot.

Hello,

You can specify the login customer ID in the google_ads_php.ini file. For any PHP client library specific questions, please reach out to the client library owners here.
