Hi Luis, thanks again for the reply. I understand that technically the service will return customers available to the OAuth credentials, however the OAuth credentials I'm using are those of the MCC account, which has access to several sub-accounts. In the AdWords editor, when logging into the MCC account I can access any of the sub-accounts, however when using the API under the MCC account's OAuth credentials I can only access the MCC account itself. It's this discrepancy in access that is most confusing to me. The OAuth credentials used to provide access to all the available sub-accounts, when invoking the AdWords customer service, however in the new Google Ads API, it does not. Are you able to try an example case on your end in order to reproduce my findings? Thanks.
