Google Ads API Insufficient authentication scopes error

[Sriram Sivaraman]

Hello, I am trying to use the Google Ads API to try and get reports from Google ADs.

I am using the code similar to this.

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/reporting/example

I also have a basic access to the Google Ads Account.

Everytime I run the script to get reports I get the following error. 

status = StatusCode.PERMISSION_DENIED

"Request had insufficient authentication scopes.","grpc_status":7

I have also turned the Google Ads Scope in Google Cloud but still getting the same error.

Can someone please help me with this?

Regards,

Sriram

Hi Sriram, 

Are you using restful API or client libraries?

I have tried the restful API and get the reports successfully.

Some notes might be helpful for you:

1) The clientCustomerId is a long value, not a string, without "-"

2) Need to pass the login-customer-id=6642246847 if the account is marin mcc account.

3) Access token has a prefix "Bearer "

Thanks,

Daniel

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. The PERMISSION_DENIED error is usually due to one of the following:

• you are authenticating as a manager, but did not specify that manager account ID in the login-customer-ID in the request header
• the email used to create the OAuth credentials does not have the requisite access level in the target Ads account

Please check for the above and let us know if you have any further questions.
