AdWords API: Updating Shared Logins

Tuesday 25 October 2005 @ 11:59 am
The login changes at Google are sure to cause quite a bit of havic with those using MCCs, shared advertiser logins, and the API dev teams.

The Google API blog listed off some ‘best practices’:

Best Practices – Updating shared AdWords logins

Be sure to select “No. I might manage this AdWords account with others” during the first step of the update process

Create a new username and password that is different from the current AdWords username and password

Please advise your client to go through this same process (separate from you), and advise them to:

Choose a *different* username/password than you have

Avoid using their personal email address as their Google Account, but rather use their business or another professional email account as their login

Update your API headers as soon as possible to ensure that future API requests use your new Google Accounts login

Note: if you are accessing a client’s account via a My Client Center (MCC) account, be sure to also request that your client provide you with their new username so you can update your API headers accordingly.

Complete this update as soon as possible. While all AdWords users will not be required to update their account(s) for the next few months, we strongly suggest that you complete the process in early November, especially with the busy holiday season ahead of us.
