AdWords Manager Accounts
In order to provide Google Ads spend reporting access to Rockerbox, the person completing the authentication in the Rockerbox platform needs access to each sub-account with ads running.
When to Grant Sub-Account Access
If the person authenticating Google Ads in the Rockerbox platform has an AdWords Manager account that oversees multiple sub-accounts, that person may not automatically have the needed access to each sub-account, even if they’re able to see all campaigns in the Google Ads platform.
If this is the case, in the Rockerbox platform under Settings > Spend, you will see that your spend accounts are (unauthorized), as in the image below.
