Hi Hari, Please see answers below to your questions.
1) Can I create campaigns under root manager account directly with out child client account. If yes can you please point me to a documentation/guide so that i can create campaigns under direct root manager account. Campaigns cannot be created in a manager account. It can only be created in a client account. This is true for both AdWords UI and API. You can check this example <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/java/basic-operations#add-campaigns> (in Java) on how to create campaigns. For your questions 2 and 3, kindly refer to my answer below. Refresh token is not campaign based, it is user based or email address based. You can check these users in your *AdWords UI -> Account settings*. For example, if you have 2 users (e.g. [email protected], [email protected]) in your client account, then you can generate OAuth2 credentials (with client ID, client secret, refresh token) to these two users. The user a@example will have a unique refresh token and [email protected] will have a different unique refresh token. The idea here is that OAuth2 credential is associated to an *email address of a user* which is under your client/manager account, and not on a campaign or the client account itself. You can check this guide <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/authentication> on how to authenticate in the AdWords API including the generation of refresh token (see this section <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/authentication#configure_and_use_a_client_library> ). Could you confirm on why do you want to generate separate refresh tokens to your campaigns or to your client accounts? If you want to access multiple client accounts under an MCC, then you can select a user from that MCC that has administrative/standard access, and generate the OAuth credential for that user. This way, your credential can access the MCC and all sub MCCs and client accounts under it. Let me know if you have further clarifications.
