Supported authentication method

The Google Ad Manager Reader supports OAuth authentication. Creating a connection requires creating a custom service in Google, obtaining OAuth credentials, obtaining an authorization code and exchanging it for an access token and a refresh token, and setting the connection properties in Striim.

To configure OAuth authentication for Google Ad Manager:

Go to the Google OAuth 2.0 Playground.
Click on the gear icon in the top right corner of the OAuth 2.0 Playground.
Check Use your own OAuth credentials and input your Client ID and Client Secret.
In the list of available APIs, find the Google Ad Manager API and select the scope you need (for example, https://www.googleapis.com/auth/dfp for Google Ad Manager). Click Authorize APIs.
A Google authentication page will open. Log in with your Google account and authorize the app to access your Ad Manager account.
After authorization, you will be redirected to the OAuth 2.0 Playground with an authorization code.
In the OAuth 2.0 Playground, click Exchange authorization code for tokens. You will receive an access token and a refresh token. The access token is valid for a limited period (usually 1 hour), while the refresh token can be used to get a new access token when it expires.
Store the access token and refresh token securely. You'll use the access token for API requests, and the refresh token will allow you to get new access tokens without re-authorizing the user.
