Ads API Client Libraries for Ruby

This project hosts the new Ads common framework for Ruby, as well as the Ruby client libraries for the various SOAP-based Ads APIs at Google.

The Ruby client libraries make it easier to write Ruby clients to programmatically access your accounts.

Getting started

  1. Install your library of choice using RubyGems.
