Using one OAuth 2.0 Adwords token on different servers

[Fedor Ivanov]

Good day!

My question is as follows.

I work with the service that accumulates Adwords statistics from a huge number of our clients accounts (>5000)

For this purpose we have standard developer token (https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/ratesheet?hl=ru)

It is stated that we can send unlimited number of requests. But in fact we can not send more than 60 parallel requests since our server limitations.

So my questions are: 

is it possible to use one token to send requests from different servers?

is it possible to have >1 standard developer tokens in one google account?

Sincerely,

Fedor

Hi Fedor,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

When you have a large number of parallel requests you may exceed the rate limit and encounter the RateExceededError. You should reduce the queries per second(QPS) to ensure the API requests work. In order to fix this issue, slow down a little bit and reduce the QPS. You can also consider batching multiple requests into a single request. Furthermore, you can apply message queue to your application for operation load distribution, while also controlling request and consumer rates. For details on the rate limit, please refer to this documentation.

As for your specific questions, although you use one token to send requests from different servers all threads would still count towards the total QPS limit for one account. If you would like to have more than one developer tokens in one google account you could consult the Compliance Team to see if that might be possible or not.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further concerns or questions.

Bharani, Google Ads API Team
