We are creating a reporting tool for adwords accounts. I have code that creates an invitation to a prospective client to allow access. They can than accept it in their adwords account and we display campaign and adgroup metrics and segments.
This all works, but two things remain a mystery after a lot of searching: We only need and want to display performance reports and are not "managing" the accounts. I gather that is "read-only" access. But there seems to be no way to request read-only. When the client goes to accept the invitation, they see warnings saying that we will be able to alter their accounts on many ways. >>> Is there a way to invite for read-only access? >>> Is there a way for the client to accept but only for reporting (read-only)? ------------ Separately, I have seen third-party tools like ours that seems to be able to launch a window that allows the prospective clients to enter their credentials and grant access immediately. But I see nothing in the API that would allow me to code such a method. >>> Any ideas/help on this?
