Do i need to create a second Test account and link that to the Test Manger Account to test AdWords API

2017-06-20 Thread Mevin Babu
Hey,


This is what I have done so far:

* created a Production Manager Account and used it to generate *client ID*, 
*client 
secret* and *Developer token*
* created a Test Manager Account and generated the refresh token, by using 
OAuth mechanism. (In the OAuth flow I gave access to this account)

For the customer_id , I gave the customer ID of a third account i have, so 
that I can create campaigns on that account. For this i believe I need to 
link the third account to the Test manager Account. When I try to link, it 
says "The manager cannot create more client accounts".

1. Does this mean, I can only link another Test account ?

2. Now do i create another Test Manager Account for this or there is 
another way to create a Test Account (Which is not a manager)


3. When I tried to create another Test Manager Account, I get the following 
question, which one do i pick now ?

Re: MCC test account confusion, account works but client account gives USER_PERMISSION_DENIED

2017-06-20 Thread Mevin Babu
So does this mean, we have to create another Test account and then link it 
to the Test Manager Account to test API ? 

And also, Is this test account going to be another Test Manager account, 
because, I don't see any way to create a Test Account, which is not a 
manager
