Thank you for your response, Please note there is no 9th step on the documentation of the page you shared in the link above.
I have already completed steps 1-5 to generate and access token and wanted to address the concern of the cumbersome process of generating an access token for Google Ads. The documentation shared in my previous message references the steps of creating auth tokens for other conversion API's. For most Conversion API's, the auth token generation is simple, or automatically available to manager or owner role users on their business platforms. Generating an auth token for Google ads not only requires completion of steps 1-5 but also the preemptive steps of creating a console project, retrieving or generating a dev token, and generating the code parameter. This process is inflated in comparison to other events API's. Does Google Ads have plans in the future to simplify this process?
