Hi, I am a newbie for Google Ads API. I do follow steps from the links below for the PHP&Laravel application.

https://github.com/googleads/googleads-php-lib/blob/master/examples/AdWords/LaravelSampleApp/app/Http/Controllers/AdWordsApiController.php

But I saw only download class to get report data via file. So Is it possible to get data and store in JSON instead of a file?

Anyone, please suggest to me?

Hi Phongthorn,

Thanks for reaching out. By looking into the code you mentioned I observed that there is actually a JSON object and then it was decoded and saved in a file.

$json = json_encode( simplexml_load_string($reportDownloadResult->getAsString()));
$resultTable = json_decode($json, true)['table'];

You would be able to use this JSON data before it was converted.

Thanks and regards,
