Hi Aysun,
Thank you for reaching out. Before you could make an API call, you would
need to do the following:
1. Sign up <https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7459399> for a
Google Ads Manager account.
2. Apply for a developer token
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/dev-token>
3. Download the client library
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/client-libs>
4. Set up OAuth2 credentials
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/oauth-cloud-project>
5. Get a refresh token
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/refresh-token>
Take note that before you could make an API call using a production
account, you would need to apply for basic access
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/access-levels#applying_for_basic_access>.
The compliance team will contact you within 2 business days for the status.
Once basic access is approved, you may then make an API call against your
production account. You would also need to enable Google Ads API in your
project, you may do so by following this guide
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/oauth-cloud-project#enable_the_in_your_project>.
After completing all the steps, you could now try to make your first API
call
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/first-call/get-campaigns>
.
Let me know if this helps. Feel free to write back if you have further
clarifications.
Regards,
Dave

Hello,
I have never used Google Ads API before.
I read Google documentation to learn how to use the API.
I will use this API to create reports and dashboards.
I have been only sent the developer token in order to access the API.
However as I understand, it is not enough and I need at least customer or
client id.
Is this true and is there a way that I access this information without
asking the client again?
What else I need to access the API?
I would like to precise that I do not have any access to the ads account.
I will appreciate if you can guide me how to be sucessful at my first ads
API call.
Thanks
Kind regards,
Aysun
