Anash, Thanks very much for your help on this. I think I have gone down the wrong path here. The OAuth version of the API presents me with a CAPTCH challenge that I need to forward to the user. However, I am not creating a client application for users to manage their AdWords accounts where this process makes perfect sense as I would not want to store their account credentials. However, I am building an integration with my application so I can programmatically create campaigns, adgroups, etc. and this CAPTCHA challenge makes this not feasible as this will not be in response to a user action but an automated process. Is there a way to interact with the API where I can use my credentials that I know, without having to deal with manually authenticating?
Thanks again. Simon Baynes On Thursday, March 29, 2012 10:04:12 AM UTC+1, Anash P. Oommen wrote: > > Hi Simon, > > There are couple more pieces to getting OAuth to work on an ASP.NETwebsite. > > 1.
