Build and run a Display & Video 360 report via the Bid Manager API

Steps
Authenticate with OAuth2 and target Bid Manager API v2, since v1 has been sunset and is no longer supported
Build a Query resource describing the report (metadata, report type, filters, group-bys, and metrics) and call queries.create
Explicitly call queries.run to execute the query on demand — v2 requires this separate call and does not auto-run the query immediately after creation
Poll the query/report resource until status indicates the run completed, then read the generated report's file location from the response
Download and parse the resulting report file (typically CSV in a Google Cloud Storage location)
For recurring needs, schedule the query on a cadence instead of manually re-triggering queries.run each time
Known gotchas
Older sample code often reflects Bid Manager API v1 semantics (auto-run on create); that assumption breaks silently under v2, which requires an explicit run call
The separate DV360 'Exchange Reporting API' is a different product limited to Third-Party Exchange (3PE) partners — standard DV360 advertisers cannot onboard to it for general reporting
Report output files expire from their storage location after a retention window, so downloads must happen promptly after a run completes
