Hi Sachin,

To retrieve the CustomerId using the account's username and password, you need to follow these steps:

1. Generate client ID and client secret by following the instructions provided here. Once you have the OAuth2 credentials, you need to generate the refresh token using any of the client libraries. 
2. Use CustomerService.getCustomers() method without setting the clientCustomerId header along with the credentials generated. The response will contain the details of the authenticated account.

Hello Shwetha,

Thank you for your reply.

I successfully authenticate the request and get users email/name etc. but not get "Customer Id". This is the user's data as response which I got:

Array
(
    [id] => **************
    [email] => *****@gmail.com
    [verified_email] => 1
    [name] => Sachin Kumar
    [given_name] => Sachin
    [family_name] => Kumar
    [link] => https://plus.google.com/**************
    [picture] => https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CxjPiLZwnPM/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAALI/QMgIXPAnqng/photo.jpg
    [gender] => male
    [locale] => en
)

Here is the code to get this response:

<?php
   
    session_start();
   
    global $objGoogleClient;
    global $objGoogleOauth;
   
    require 'login-with-google/config.php';
   
    $objGoogleClient = $gClient;
   
    if(! isset($_REQUEST['code'])){
        header('Location: ' . $objGoogleClient->createAuthUrl());
    }
    if (isset($_REQUEST['code'])) {
        $objGoogleClient->authenticate();
        $accessToken = $objGoogleClient->getAccessToken();
        $_SESSION['token'] = $accessToken;
        $_SESSION['googlePlusToken'] = $accessToken;
    }

    if (isset($_SESSION['token'])) {
        $objGoogleClient->setAccessToken($_SESSION['token']);
    }

    if ($objGoogleClient->getAccessToken()) {
       
        $gpUserData = $google_oauthV2->userinfo->get();
        echo '<pre>';
        print_r($gpUserData);
        die('huuu');
    }



Can you plz provide some piece of code or suggestion?

Hi Sachin,

Once you have the access token associated with the email address in question, you need to perform a CustomerService.getCustomers() request with the clientCustomerId header unset. An example SOAP request and response looks like this:

Request:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <soapenv:Header>
    <ns1:RequestHeader xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201609" soapenv:actor="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/next" soapenv:mustUnderstand="0">

      <ns1:userAgent>YOUR_APPLICATION_NAME</ns1:userAgent>
      <ns1:validateOnly>false</ns1:validateOnly>
      <ns1:partialFailure>false</ns1:partialFailure>
    </ns1:RequestHeader>
  </soapenv:Header>
  <soapenv:Body>
        <getCustomers xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/mcm/v201609"/>
  </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Response:
