Ads API apps must complete OAuth verification

Last year, the OAuth scopes used by the following Ads APIs were classified as sensitive, requiring developers to complete the OAuth verification process for their Google Cloud projects:
  • Google Ads API & AdWords API
    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords
  • Content API for Shopping
    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/content
  • DoubleClick Bid Manager API
    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/doubleclickbidmanager
Any remaining OAuth clients using the above scopes that remain unverified may have their existing credentials revoked and lose access to the above APIs if they do not complete the OAuth verification process as soon as possible.

Certain apps may qualify for one of the exceptions for app verification. If your application meets any one of those exceptions, follow the steps listed for the appropriate use case. If not, you must complete OAuth verification to continue using these Ads APIs.
