Service Account authorization

[chaitu chaitu]

Hi,

Since dfareporting_utils.py is not suitable for google app engine, it is writing a file when try to authorize where as App Engine doesn't have permission to write files. Planning to create a script for authorization with service account. 

In the below link it was mentioned this but the"Manage user access"  link is not working. 

1. Associate the DCM user profile with the service account email obtained in the previous step as described in the Manage user access help center article.

link : https://developers.google.com/doubleclick-advertisers/service_accounts#DCMuser

Please help me the process how to associate the DCM user profile with service account email. 

Thanks,

Hi,

The service account email address (ends with iam.gserviceaccount.com) should be added as a user profile in the DCM account. To add a user profile you need to have admin access. For more information or further assistance, please reach out to general support team. They will be able to help you.

Thanks,

Thanks Lakshmi. I was struggling with this as well. I added the service account to DCM and server account authentication started working properly.

Can you provide a link to the documentation where this requirement  is described. 

The documentation I reviewed led me to believe that if you use a DCM linked account to create an app and service account permissions should work.

Thanks
