Google Ads Connector

Google Ads Manage campaigns, conversions, customers, and local services in Google Ads.

Connections

OAuth 2.0

OAuth 2.0 connection

This component uses OAuth 2.0 to connect to the Google Ads API.

Prerequisites

  • A Developer Token is required to work with Google Ads
  • The Customer ID of the Ads Manager account (the hyphenated number in the top-left corner of the Ads app) must be noted
  • A Google Developer account is required

Developer Token

The Developer Token is obtained from a Google Ads Manager account:

  1. Sign in to Google Ads with the Google account that will be used for the integration
  2. Click Tools & Settings in the top right corner
  3. Under Setup, click API Center
  4. In the Developer token section, click Create token or view the existing token
  5. Copy and save the Developer Token value securely
  6. Take note of the Customer ID displayed in the top-right corner of Google Ads (XXX-XXX-XXXX). This will be needed when configuring the connection.

Configure Google Cloud Project

  1. Access the project selector in the top-left and select an existing project or create a new one.
  2. Select APIs & Services -> Enabled APIs & services from the left hand menu
  3. Click Enable APIs and Services towards the top of the screen
  4. Search for "google ads api" and select Google Ads API in the results (avoid selecting AdWords as that is deprecated)
  5. Click the Enable button to add the API to the project
  6. On the sidebar, select Credentials.
  7. An OAuth 2.0 app includes a "Consent Screen". Click CONFIGURE CONSENT SCREEN.
    1. The app will be externally available to customers, so choose a User Type of External.
    2. Fill out the OAuth consent screen with an app name, support email, app logo, domain, etc.
    3. On the next page, add the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords scope to the app.
    4. Enter some test users for testing purposes. The app will only work for those testing users until it is "verified" by Google. When ready for verification, click PUBLISH APP on the OAuth consent screen. That will allow customers to authorize the integration to access their Google Ads.
  8. Once the "Consent Screen" is configured, open the Credentials page from the sidebar again.
  9. Click +CREATE CREDENTIALS and select OAuth client ID.
    1. Under Application type select Web application.
    2. Under Authorized redirect URIs enter the OAuth 2.0 callback URL: https://oauth2.integrations.acme.com/callback
    3. Click CREATE.
  10. Take note of the Client ID and Client Secret that are generated.

Configure the Connection

  • Client ID: From the Google Cloud Console OAuth client credentials
  • Client Secret: From the Google Cloud Console OAuth client credentials
  • Developer Token: From the Google Ads API Center
  • API Version: The Google Ads API version to use. Refer to the Google Ads API release notes for the latest version.

Supported API Versions

The component supports multiple API versions through the API Version connection field:

VersionStatusTentative Sunset
v22Recommended (default)October 2026
v21StableAugust 2026
v20StableJune 2026
v19LegacyFebruary 2026

Sunset dates are tentative and subject to change. See the official deprecation and sunset schedule for the latest information.

After entering the credentials, authorize the connection by signing in with the same Google account used to create the Developer Token and OAuth credentials.

This connection uses OAuth 2.0, a common authentication mechanism for integrations. Read about how OAuth 2.0 works here.
