Loading Error with the googleads.yaml file

[ni...@juniqe.com]

Hej Community,

I wrote a script that pulls a performance report and based on KPI evaluation adds labels to ads.
When I run this script on my machine it works fine but when I copied the script and the googleads.yaml file to my colleagues PC, it doesn't work anymore.

Traceback (most recent call last):

 File "C:\Users\Juniqe\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\lib\site-packages\googleads\common.py", line 289, in LoadFromStorage

   optional_product_values)

   'Please replace the "dfp" key in the configuration YAML string with'

googleads.errors.GoogleAdsValueError: Please replace the "dfp" key in the configuration YAML string with"ad_manager" to fix this issue.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Adding ad_manager to the dfp key does not fix this and it actually should not matter at all.

I don't know why it even checks the dfp keys as in my script I call adwordsclient not dfpclient.

adwords_client = adwords.AdWordsClient.LoadFromStorage(

        r"C:\Users\Juniqe\Desktop\evergreen_script\googleads.yaml")

We are using the latest version of googleads module and run it on Python 3.7.0

Hopefully, someone has an idea how I can solve this.

Cheers,
Nils

Hi Nils,

This issue seems to be related to Python client library rather than the AdWords API. I would suggest to post your issue on this link as the client library owners are better equipped to assist you here.

Thanks and regards,
