You need a Google API Console project for creating OAuth 2.0 credentials, and
enabling the Google Ads API for your app.
The credentials are needed for the authentication and authorization of Google Ads
users by Google servers. These credentials let you generate OAuth tokens to be
used in calls to the API.
Although you can use a single developer token for multiple projects, each
project can use only a single developer token.
Select or create a Google API Console project
Follow the instructions
to create a project. Enabling billing for your project
is optional. If you have billing enabled, select a billing account for the new
project. There is no charge for using the Google Ads API, but there is a quota on the
total number of Cloud projects.
Enable the Google Ads API in your project
To enable the Google Ads API in your project, follow these steps:
Open the API Library in the Google API Console. If prompted, select your
project or create a new one. The API Library lists all available
APIs, grouped by product family and popularity.
Use search to find the Google Ads API if it isn't visible in the list.
Select the Google Ads API, then click the Enable button.
