[!IMPORTANT] Assisted Enterprise Onboarding Advisory The Google Ads API integration requires multi-stage authorization across Google Cloud Console (OAuth 2.0 Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI) and Google Ads MCC (Developer Token and 10-digit Customer Account ID). Because this procedure involves technical developer verification and Google Cloud policy governance, we strongly recommend contacting our engineering team at [email protected] or [email protected] for assisted setup. Our team provides white-glove onboarding and can deploy pre-authenticated credentials directly to your client tenant partition.
