Hi Ryan,
Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.
By reviewing your concern, I understand that you are facing an issue while
adding a service account to Google Ads. Please note that the service account
must be correctly linked to the Google Ads account via the OAuth2 assertion
flow and the email address you may have used to generate the credentials should
have access or be associated with Google Ads accounts.
Here are some guidelines, to connect to Google Ads API using a Google service
account, you will need a Google Workspace domain since it is a prerequisite for
using service accounts. You need to follow all the mentioned prerequisites:
The service account that you created needs to be granted domain wide delegation
access by a super administrator for the domain.
Using a Google Ads user with permissions on the Google Ads account you want to
access.
Make sure that you have your own domain registered with Google Workspace.
Service accounts will have the ability to impersonate any user in the domain.
You may refer to this “Service Accounts” documentation that discusses how to
access the Google Ads API with service accounts.
In addition, we strongly recommend using OAuth2 installed app or web flows
instead of service accounts unless you need domain-specific features (for
example, impersonation). OAuth2 installed application and web flows require
user interaction only once, when access to the account is granted. You need to
implement the code set up on your end to make calls using service accounts.
I hope this helps. Kindly get back to us if you have any further questions
related to the Google Ads API.
