So, I create some reports with python via google ads API, when I develop reports it will result in 1 manager account google ads since on here configuration I just can add 1 YAML file, or I just loop it into multiple YAML files, on YAML file we (developer) add 1 developer token and 1 customer_id.

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API Forum.

Kindly note that there is no way to loop it into multiple YAML files for multiple manager accounts. You may need to configure your Python client library as mentioned here. However, you can generate a set of reports from a list of accounts in parallel using this code example using the Client library.

Hi, thanks for responding to my message,  it's might sound silly, but for generating a certain report from a list of accounts, can I list it if there is a different manager ID?

Hi Dimas,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

Upon this question "for generating a certain report from a list of accounts, can I list it if there is a different manager ID?" Can you please provide full screen screenshot of the UI of which data you want to pull?so that i can further investigate the issue.

For  this question "did it mean I must the YAML file?" As this is a Python client library issue, can you please reach out to the Python client library owners?

Hi Dimas,

I hope that you are doing well today.

Regarding your concern about "for that part, I mean different MCC", yes, it is possible to generate a specific list of reports for client accounts from different MCC. However, you must ensure that your email address / email addressed used in the authentication has access to the list of customer id accounts where you want to generate a report.

Please let me know if you have further concerns, and our team would be pleased to assist you.



Best,

Hi team, thanks a lot for the response, so I want to make it clear if I want to get the report I just use the example parallel report on your team just give it to me?

after I run on a single account I just got some errors like "Error with a message "The developer token is not approved. Non-approved developer tokens can only be used with test accounts.".

must I apply for basic access to getting the report? since I just got the developer account and got the access for the test account

Hi Dimas,

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, I could confirm that you can generate a set of reports from a list of accounts in parallel using this code example using the Client library.

Moving forward to the DEVELOPER_TOKEN_NOT_APPROVED error, this might be connected to your account access because  like what you have said, your API access is still in test and the presented issue is caused by making a call against a production account with a developer token only approved for test access. You can apply for Basic Access by following the steps outlined here.

so let's make it clear if I apply for a developer token like the one in the API center under set up settings. It can't work since it's for a test developer token and must apply to basic access to make it the call API works right?

Hi Disam,

Thank you for this clarification. Yes, I can confirm that you must apply to basic access to make it the call API works right. For more information, you can check it out here in Access Levels and Permissible Use. Let me know if you have any additional questions with the provided document.
