It handles OAuth2 authentication via google-auth and google-auth-oauthlib, serializes requests and responses using zeep and xmltodict, and manages configuration through PyYAML. The library abstracts away low-level protocol details so developers can focus on ad operations like creating line items, managing inventory, and retrieving reports.\n\nThe package carries high install friction because it bundles seven runtime dependencies for authentication, XML processing, and HTTP communication. It is actively maintained with recent releases and a stable repository, making it reliable for production use. The permissive Apache 2.0 license poses no restrictions for commercial deployment.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to programmatically manage Google Ad Manager. The library is actively maintained, carries no known vulnerabilities, and the Apache 2.0 license is permissive. High install friction (7 dependencies) is justified by the complexity of OAuth2 and SOAP protocol handling. Suitable for production use in ad operations, reporting, and trafficking automation."},"id":"googleads","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/googleads","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/googleads.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/googleads/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"googleads","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Google Ads Python Client Library"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":933077,"position":4698,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"50.0.0"}
