Requesting report data to my server

[Ad Reporter]

Hi,

We would like to request data from the Adsense API on a daily basis from our server (with a cron job). This process will grab the daily data and will store it in our DB for reporting purposes.

We tried this: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-adsense-examples/tree/master/php-clientlib-1.x/v1.x

But it seems that it is requiring a google account approval (OAuth 2.0) in the browser and is not designed for server access.

How can we access the API from our server without a browser?

Hope someone can help us understand this,

Thanks

Hi,

you will need to do the browser auth once on your server then store a refresh token and use that for all future requests.

Take a look at the bit about STORE_ON_DISK in the readme.

thanks,

Dean
