Hello Daniel,

 Those questions are dependent on what SOAP library you're using for
your AdWords API communications. I'd think that if your getAllJobs()
call succeeds then you have things properly set up and your
getReportDownloadUrl() call should succeed as well, but that's not
necessarily the case.

 Which SOAP library are you using? Have you tried enabling SOAP
logging in your library and checking the XML that is being sent back
and received by your code to make sure the getReportDownloadUrl() call
is being made with the report id parameter and seeing exactly what it
returns?

Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team
