Hi, I want to know if our customers login in our web application， how to get google ads api  authorization code for tokens  without OAuth2？ we want to get authorization code for tokens through google ads api if possible.

Hi,

One of the prerequisites to use Google Ads API is OAuth2 client ID and client secret/ OAuth2 access and refresh tokens. If you are using client libraries some of the operations can be performed smoothly like generating token and refreshing access token. To conclude, without using OAuth it is not possible to generate the authorization code or tokens.
