We have been using the AdWords API for reporting for months and suddenly we have been getting this error and the reporting data download has been failing.  I read the blog about accounts having to be active, should the data download fail only for the inactive accounts or for all accounts within the MCC?

Hi Kim,

Yes, the request will fail for inactive accounts and not for all other accounts within the MCC. You can reactivate the canceled account by following the steps in this guide. Let me know if you have any further questions. 

Thanks,
Milind, AdWords API Team

This is the same issue as this other thread:

We are also experiencing this issue intermittently beginning on 9/4/2018, but now today (9/21/2018) the issue just continually occurs so I cannot workaround the issue currently.  Please advise.

Thanks for the info Milind,

Is there anyway we can see in the api response which accounts are active and which have been cancelled?

Hi Kim,

Unfortunately, there is no way to get the active and cancelled accounts list in single response via API. However, you will get the only active accounts using ManagedCustomerService.get API call. Let me know if you have any further questions.
