Consent unbundling in Google Ads scripts
Starting in January 2025, we will enable consent unbundling in Google Ads scripts. This is a new feature of OAuth that allows you to customize which specific scopes you want to authorize, rather than the current all-or-nothing approach. Consent unbundling is being rolled out in all Google OAuth applications.
Google Ads scripts already runs a static analysis on your code before presenting the OAuth consent screen, and only requests the specific features that are required to run the script. Therefore, when you authorize Google Ads scripts, ensure that you select all the boxes on that screen, or else you will experience execution errors.
Any existing scripts you already have will continue to work without any user action needed when this feature rolls out, unless you make changes that require reauthorization. Existing unmodified scripts will continue to run as usual.
If you have any questions about consent unbundling or other Google Ads scripts features, please post them in the Google Ads scripts forum.
