How to obtain the customer MCC associated with all its sub accounts through the main MCC? And the associated requests received by each sub account.
I know that I can traverse each sub account one by one, and call the interface once for each sub account to obtain these contents, but my main MCC has too many sub accounts, and I want to timely obtain all the associated requests received by all the sub accounts under my main MCC, so as to process them in a timely manner.
So are there any batch operations? Querying one by one is too slow, and the probability of 429 appearing will increase significantly, resulting in low timeliness.
Summary of the problem : Customer Manager Link and Customer Client Link did not meet my expectations because they can only target a specific sub account and cannot be obtained in bulk. I want to achieve batch retrieval.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the Google Ads API support team.

Please be informed that the Google Ads API does not offer a direct, single-call batch operation to retrieve all CustomerManagerLink and CustomerClientLink information (including associated link requests) across all sub-accounts under a main MCC. Instead, you can use the customer_client resource to get the list of sub-accounts under a manager account. Kindly refer to the below given GAQL query to retrieve the list of customer IDs under your MCC below:

 SELECT customer_client.client_customer, customer_client.descriptive_name, 
customer_client.manager FROM customer_client 

Also, the link request status is stored within the CustomerManagerLink and CustomerClientLink resources. Since you are querying down from the manager, the most direct resource to query for all links, including the status, is the customer_client_link resource. Please find the below given GAQL query for links and their status.

 SELECT customer_client_link.client_customer, customer_client_link.status, 
customer_client_link.manager_link_id FROM customer_client_link 

The customer_client_link.status field will be an enum, and you are interested in the PENDING status, which represents an outgoing link invitation from your manager to a sub-account that has not yet been accepted.

I hope this helps! Feel free to get back to us in case of any further queries.
