Connecting AdWords accounts via API

[Matt Rogers]

Hey Guys,

So we have a shiny new Independent Software Developer key which we're very excited to use! :)

I have some basic questions on the solution which we're trying to achieve, this is what we're trying to do:

1. User surfs over to our website
2. User signs up to our service online
3. User connects AdWords account
4. User starts using service

My questions is around how we achieve stage 3. I am assuming that there is a "Facebook Connect" style connection, something like "Sign in to connect your AdWords Account", we open a pop-up the users signs in, etc.

However, it could be a process that looks like this:

1. Our key is associated with an MCC
2. The user enters their account ID into a text box (the account could be a MCC)
3. Through the API we add the account ID to our MCC
4. We inform the user to accept or decline the request
5. We poll the API occasionally to find out if the account has been added
6. User starts using the service

Can you advise what the best solution is for this?

Cheers,

Matt.
