Hi Peter, Thank you for the response! I still do not understand a few things:
1. In the Parallel Report Download <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/python/reporting#parallel-report-download> example you provided, the authentication in still being done using a yaml file. Doesn't it require a customer ID? I don't understand how you can authenticate via a yaml file and then provided different customer IDs.. does it override the original customer ID set in the yaml file? 2. "automatically refresh your access tokens <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/authentication#access_token_expiration>" - means that it will generate a new refresh token? We're using a hard coded refresh token in the yaml file and don't want it to change... 3. https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/conversion-tracking#importing_click_conversions - Found this: "When uploading click conversions for multiple accounts, you can specify the clientCustomerId of a common manager account and include operations with GCLIDs from across multiple accounts. A conversion is attributed to the proper account based on the origin of its GCLID." Can this apply for my needs? Can I set the customer ID in the yaml file to be the MCC one and send gclids of it's child accounts and it will find the match?
