    - In the API Center, you will see your **Developer Token**
    - Your token will initially have **Test Account** access. To use it with production accounts, click **Apply for Basic Access**
    - Fill out the application form with details about how you will use the API
    - Google typically reviews and approves Basic Access applications within a few business days
7. Configure Unified.to
    - In Unified [**https://app.unified.to/integrations/googleads**](https://app.unified.to/integrations/googleads), add the following:
        - The OAuth client's **Client ID**
        - The OAuth client's **Client Secret**
