Thanks Josh, so far, I believe i have found a major issue: headers name/value pairs need to be separated by a colon. So that would make my original attempt look more like this:
https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/reportdownload/v201409 Authorization:Bearer xxxxxxx& developerToken:xxxxxxx& clientCustomerId:xxx-xxx-xxx& __rdquery=SELECT+Name+FROM+KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT+DURING+20140101, 20141231& __fmt=CSV But I still get the same error, and I can not find an article that provides examples of what a complete inline string looks like. (there must be one out there). And while I have used, and continue to seek out any number of http clients which help build URLs with headers, parameters, and body, I have not found one which shows the resulting URL string 'inline'. (a single, inline string is all I can send) So, where one article mentions that a question mark comes before the parameters (implying after the headers?), I have tried many variations of the question mark in different positions, or completely absent, the bottom line is, I cant figure out what this is supposed to "LOOK LIKE". Now, I don’t want anyone to do any work for me, I did the entire AOuth2 part without asking for help, though it took almost a week, but I did it, on my own. But this part (sending a request for a pre-defined report in csv format), has taken me almost twice that long. So I implore you, if you know what this urlURL should look like, please, please link me to an artical, or, consider replying with an example of what it should look like. I will continue on my own, but some help would be so very much appreciated. if you give me an address, I will send you some home made rice crispy treats.
