Hello,
Confirming the start date is set to datetime.now() and that it is being
made at the same time as the API request. I have re-run the code several
times and got the same error message. Would you be able to assist me in
where to pull those request and response logs from? Below is the full error
message. Also, just to re-iterate the oddity I was experiencing where I
would receive this error, but if, in the Google Ads UI, I clicked into
billing then selected Link to Existing Setup, and then exited WITHOUT
setting up billing, the next time I ran the code it would work as expected.
