Hi,

Thank you for posting your concern.

If you are asking on how to create refresh token to address the error then, I would suggest following the specific guide below, especially the 3rd and 4th steps for creating refresh token and configuring it in your client library, depending on the oauth2 flow that you have chosen:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/client-libs/python/oauth-desktop
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/client-libs/python/oauth-web

Let me know if you have questions on the provided suggestion.

Regards,
