In October, 2024 , Python 3.8 will reach end-of-life and will no longer be supported by the Python Software Foundation. Once Python 3.8 officially reaches end-of-life status, it will also no longer be supported by the Google Ads client library for Python . That means we will not make updates to the library, or address any issues related to compatibility with Python 3.8, outside of critical security updates.
In Q1 2025 we will release a new major version of the library that is incompatible with Python 3.8. This new version will include support for Python 3.13. Users of deprecated, or soon-to-be deprecated versions of Python, are at risk of losing access to the Google Ads API. Please note the below timelines:
Python 3.7 users will lose access to the API when v15 is sunset on September 25, 2024
Python 3.8 users will lose access to the API when v18 is sunset in Q3 or Q4 2025.
Any library users currently relying on Python 3.7 or 3.8 should upgrade their systems to Python 3.9 or higher as soon as possible.
If you have any questions about this change, please file an issue on the client library repository .
