Once you're logged into DoAutomate, click on Integrations in the navigation menu.

πΉ Step 1 - Add Our Service Account to Your MCC Account
The first step is to grant access to our service account, which allows DoAutomate to securely run audits and manage your accounts.
What Is a Service Account?
A Google service account is a special type of account used by servers or backend systems to authenticate and access Google APIs programmatically - without needing user interaction. Unlike OAuth, which requires manual login and consent, a service account uses a private key to securely access resources, making it ideal for automated tasks like running audits or managing accounts at scale. It's the recommended method for server-to-server integrations because it's more stable, secure, and doesn't expire like user tokens.
How to Add Our Service Account
Log in to your Google Ads Manager Account (MCC)
Go to Admin > Access and security > Users, then click the β+β (Add) button
In the Email field, enter:
In the Access Expires field, select Never
Under Select account access level section, choose Standard
Click on the Add account button
πΉ Step 2 - Enter Your MCC ID
While logged into your Google Ads Manager Account, you'll see your MCC ID in the top right corner, next to your profile picture (e.g. 123-456-7890
).
Copy your MCC ID and remove the dashes (e.g.
1234567890
)Paste it into the Google Ads MCC ID field in DoAutomate
Click the Test Connection button
