Getting started #236

Closed tobyberesford closed 6 years ago

tobyberesford commented 6 years ago

It would be really useful here to have a Getting started path that just used the Developer Token to query Bing Ads API. I'm trying to use the Management Model for Direct Advertisers so an Oauth walkthrough is of limited use.

@tobyberesford it isn't possible to use the Bing Ads API with only a DeveloperToken. You must authenticate with credentials of a user who has access to a Bing Ads account. Starting in version 12 OAuth is required. I'm reviewing your other feedback now, and will reply to each. Thanks!
