Hi all I am struggling with the Google Ads API documentation, so I would appreciate any help you can give me on this.
I have created a Google Ads API test application which accesses User Data, uses the Google Ads API scope, and has an OAuth Client ID and authorised redirect URL. The application is still a Test application. The problem is as follows: 1. A user links his Google Ads accounts using my software. I save his refresh token in my database. 2. My software then start managing his campaigns for him. Everything works as expected. 3. We do nothing for one week. 4. Now when my software tries to interact with the user's Google Ads accounts, it gets an error like this: Fatal error: Uncaught GuzzleHttp\Exception\ClientException: Client error: POST https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token resulted in a 400 Bad Request response: { "error": "invalid_grant", "error_description": "Bad Request" } Looking at the documentation I can see the following: "A Google Cloud Platform project with an OAuth consent screen configured for an external user type and a publishing status of "Testing" is issued a refresh token expiring in 7 days." So I'm guessing this is the issue: the user's refresh token has expired. Also in the documentation it says the following: "Access tokens have limited lifetimes. If your application needs access to a Google API beyond the lifetime of a single access token, it can obtain a refresh token. A refresh token allows your application to obtain new access tokens." OK, so I need up update the user's refresh token. But how do I do this? Do I need to make a cron which every few days runs some code which updates all the user refresh tokens in my database? If so, can you point me to some PHP code or the exact API call I need to use to do this? Thanks in advance for your help. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API and Google Ads API Forum" group.
