Hi Vlad,

Thank you for the reply.

Kindly note that the NOT_ADS_USER error 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/best-practices/common-errors#authenticationerror)
 is one of the common authorization errors encountered when the service account 
has not been correctly linked to the Google Ads account via the OAuth2 
assertion flow. Kindly note that you need to use the actual email address of 
the Google Ads user with permissions on the Google Ads account you want to 
access. You may check the guide on how to set up OAuth2 for API access using 
your own credentials with a service account in the client library you are using 
here: 
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/oauth/service-accounts?hl=en#client_library_configuration

This error typically means that the email address used to create your OAuth 
credentials in Google Cloud Console is not associated with any Google Ads 
account. See this section in our Common Errors 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/best-practices/common-errors#authenticationerror)
 guide.

If you know the email address that was used to create your OAuth credentials, 
you should be able to log into the Google Ads UI and send it an invitation by 
following the instructions in the guide I linked to above.

You may also need to enable the Google Ads API in your Google Cloud project by 
following the steps here 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/oauth-cloud-project).

If you are still encountering errors after considering all the mentioned 
information above, you may provide us with the user account / email address 
that you used to generate API access so we can further check this information. 
You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author 
option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to 
our [email protected] alias instead.

In addition, we strongly recommend using OAuth2 installed app or web flows 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/oauth/cloud-project#choose_an_application_type)
 instead of service accounts unless you need domain-specific features (for 
example, impersonation). OAuth2 installed application and web flows require 
user interaction only once, when access to the account is granted. You need to 
implement the code set up on your end to make calls using service accounts.

This message is in relation to case "ref:_00D1U1174p._5004Q2mWOfh:ref"

Thanks,

Google Ads API Team
