Product launch delayed because we're waiting on developer token application

[Ahmed Sharaf]

Hi,

I've submitted the application over 9 days ago. It's the only thing holding back our launch since we can't distribute it to users with the test accounts.

Another issue, does anyone know how you can create test campaigns / ads in the test accounts? I'm trying to develop a UI that reports on ad metrics but can't create the test ads.

Appreciate any help!

Same issue here.

I am not able to create the test account under Test Manager account. I get this error:

To create new accounts, link an existing account

This needs to be a Google Ads account that

• has spent more than $1,000
• has a history of policy compliance

Once the account is linked, you'll get access to account creation within a day

Learn more about account creation

Obviously, billing and payments is disabled in the Test Manager account. How do I proceed?

Hi,

Could you confirm whether you followed the steps while creating the test accounts ? If not, please follow the following steps

• While in your test manager account, create a test client account: Click Accounts > sub-account settings > Create new account and fill out the form.
• Any client accounts you create from your test manager account are automatically test accounts.

 Also, note that some features cannot be tested with test accounts. This includes bid simulations, conversion uploads, and billing. Other features, including recommendations, have limited capabilities within test accounts because test accounts do not generate serving data. I would recommend you to check this limitation of test accounts documentation for more information.
