Best way is to contact AdWords Support about it.

Sure, just send me an email to Christian(at)Krahn(dot)org. if you do have access to the mcc account you should find the developer token under “My account” => “adwords api Center”. If there is no token, you should be able to create one there (and wait for it to become approved).

Yeah, I understand…
I’ve requested an MCC account but… I work for a big society and we are trying to develop a new project but no one here has already seen that kind of things.
So, the MCC account was created by someone out from my office, out of my town… out from my country too… And, obviously, he has lost something or doesn’t remember if google has send him an email with that famous “developer token”. My lucky still go on: MCC has a new interface, where I can’t find tokens…
So, now I’ve that MCC, but I still don’t have the developer and application tokens.

Anyway, at the moment, I’m trying to use sandbox, so:
I can use that developer token: myemail@gmail.com++EUR
I can forget the application token (which is set on NULL value)

As result, I’ve got the same error: “authToken is missing in SoapHeader”.

Maybe can I post you my PHP code? Have you time to spend for check it?

Thanks!

With v13 an MCC account was also necessary to receive a developer token for the API. I think it’s understandable that you might want to manage multiple accounts with the API instead of just one. Even though you can have an MCC with just one account underneath it in the structure.

Thanks for the reply, you clarified my doubt.
I had this doubt just because somewhere i’ve found in google’s documentation that the only things I needed were email, password and developer token… but I suppose it was useful untill v13 version, or am I wrong?

Regards,
Michele

You need an MCC account as described here: https://adwords.google.com/support/aw/adwordsapi/bin/answer.py?hl=de&answer=15104

Nice article!
But I have some problems using the sandbox v200909 with “PHP ADWords API Lib” (the new version of APIlity).
When I try to call services like as getClientAccounts all works good. When I call something about campaigns (for example “addCampaign”) I obtain this error: “authToken is missing in SoapHeader”.
Maybe do I need to register an MCC account for getting an applicationToken and/orauthToken? Otherwise, what can I do?

Thanks!

Adwords is really good in driving traffic to your website. however, they are very strict right now and they would not easily approve websites that they thought have low quality content. ‘;
