https://docs.microsoft.com/bingads/shopping-content/
Authentication is done via OAuth using Authorization Code Grant Flow
https://docs.microsoft.com/bingads/guides/authentication-oauth
Steps to authorize a native application and generate an initial refresh token:
Note: Substitute CLIENT_ID, UNIQUE_CODE and AUTHORIZATION_CODE with the
actual values in the appropriate locations in the examples.
1) Request user consent through web browser:
(using existing Bing Ads Microsoft account when prompted)
https://login.live.com/oauth20_authorize.srf?client_id=CLIENT_ID&scope=bingads.manage&response_type=code&redirect_uri=
https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf&state=UNIQUE_CODE
Response received:
https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf?code=AUTHORIZATION_CODE&state=UNIQUE_CODE&lc=1033
2) Use the authorization 'code' received to request the access token and refresh token:
$ curl \
-d client_id=CLIENT_ID \
-d code=AUTHORIZATION_CODE \
-d grant_type=authorization_code \
-d redirect_uri=
https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf \
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
https://login.live.com/oauth20_token.srf
Response:
{
"token_type": "bearer",
"expires_in": 3600,
"scope": "bingads.manage",
"access_token": "...",
"refresh_token": "...",
"user_id": "..."
}
3) Use the received refresh_token as the initial refresh_token in Bing::ContentAPI->new()
