2. Create ads_credentials YAML string for Google Ads Authentication

To authenticate yourself against Google Ads you will need to create a YAML formatted string and save it as an Airflow parameter. This parameter will be used by TCRM for authentication between TCRM and Google Ads. The string contains 5 fields as follows:

adwords:
        client_customer_id: 123-456-7890
        developer_token: abcd
        client_id: test.apps.googleusercontent.com
        client_secret: secret
        refresh_token: 1//token

Client_customer_id is located on the top right above your email after you log in to Google Ads. The Google Ads account should contain the campaign for TCRM to automate.
