If you plan to use the Google Ads API via Python or another client, you will have to mention the location id(s) in your request.
You can download the latest CSV version of the file listing location IDs via this link.
If you’re looking to call the API for country-level requests, I have compiled a shortlist of the codes corresponding to 216 countries.
For instance, the code/id for the USA is 2840, for the UK 2826, for France 2250 and for Germany 2276.

You will also need the language_id to call the API (it defaults to 1000 for English).
The CSV for all languages is available here.
The code for French is 1002, for German 1001, for Spanish 1003 and for Italian 1004.
👉 Bear in mind that the codes / ids for locations have to be declared as a list (even if consisting of a single country).
So you’ll have to write [“2840”] for the US.
