I have a problem with google ads connector. The refresh token that is given to me always expires. Do you know how to get a refresh token from Google that doesn’t expire?

Unfortunately, the information extracts provided do not contain specific instructions on how to obtain a non-expiring refresh token from Google. However, it's important to note that typically, Google's OAuth 2.0 implementation includes refresh tokens that do not expire, unless the user revokes access, or the refresh token has not been used for six months. For setting up the Google Ads connector in Airbyte, you need to obtain OAuth credentials which include the Client ID, Client Secret, and Refresh Token. You can refer to [Google's OAuth 2.0 documentation](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2) for detailed instructions on how to obtain these credentials. If you're facing issues with the refresh token expiring, it might be a good idea to check the settings in your Google Cloud Console, and ensure that you've set up the OAuth consent screen and credentials correctly. Please note that the OAuth authentication method in Airbyte does not implement a single-click authentication experience for the end user configuring the connector. It will still be necessary to obtain the client id, client secret, and refresh token from the API and manually enter them into the configuration form. For more detailed instructions on setting up the Google Ads connector in Airbyte, you can refer to the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/google-ads). If you continue to face issues, I would recommend reaching out to the Airbyte community on their [forum](https://discuss.airbyte.io) or [Slack](https://airbytehq.slack.com) for further assistance.
