In my AdWords API program, I need to know both the clientEmail and the customerId for all of my managed accounts. I know how to get the customerId if I have the clientEmail, but I don't know how to do the reverse, at least not easily.
To get the customerId given the clientEmail, I just login via the API using the clientEmail header to make the "effective user" be the client account in question, and then call AccountService.getAccountInfo (), and access the customerId field of the returned object. I can also control the "effective user" by specifying the customerId instead of the clientEmail, which is great, but there is no clientEmail field of the AccountInfo object, as far as I can tell. The only workaround that I can think of so far, to get the clientEmail given the customerId, goes like this: login with the effective user of the MCC account. Call getClientAccounts to receive an array of client email addresses. For each one in turn, use that as the clientEmail to login and call getAccountInfo, and check if the returned customerId matches the one I am looking for. This seems quite inefficient and wastes API quota as well. Is there a simpler way? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
