One adword API developer token for multiple account

[Shijo k j]

I have to download report from multiple Adwords accounts, they are not linked under the same MCC hierarchy. I have registered with one of them and have a developer token for that account. Now I want to use this developer token with all other accounts if it is possible to download report?. Can I use one developer token for multiple Adwords account? These accounts are independent and they are not linked under the same MCC hierarchy?

Hello,

Currently, the only way to do this is to link the accounts under the same MCC hierarchy. You should be able to link them this way without disrupting other means of accessing the accounts.

Hello,

Yes, once a developer token is approved, it can be used to make calls against any account for which you have a valid refresh token, as stated in that Stack Overflow answer, although this is not generally our recommended workflow.

Let me know if you have any more specific questions.

Hi Shijo,

I think the best approach would be for you to implement OAuth2 web flow in your application. Your users need to login to your site, and grant your application the necessary permissions to access their account. Then you can use the access token to make calls to the relevant accounts.
