 Using Management API to Access My Own Account Information

"Alex S." <akssouvannakhot@gmail.com> Jun 09 11:54AM -0700  

I am creating a dashboard with information about my ads so I want to pull
information from the performance reports from my own account (clicks, CTR,
CPM, etc.). Is the Adsense Management API right for me? If not, what
options do I have?

I think it is exactly what you need for performance reports on dashboard.
 
service.accounts().reports().generate(
accountId="pub-0123456701234567",
startDate='today',
endDate='today',
metric=['EARNINGS','CLICKS', 'PAGE_VIEWS', 'COST_PER_CLICK',
'PAGE_VIEWS_RPM',
'PAGE_VIEWS_CTR'],
dimension=['AD_CLIENT_ID']).execute...
 
{
"startDate": "2014-06-10",
"kind": "adsense#report",
"rows": [
[
"ca-pub-0123456701234567",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***"
],
[
"partner-pub-0123456701234567",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***"
]
],
"endDate": "2014-06-10",
"totals": [
"",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***",
"***"
],
...
}
 
On dashboard on your own [local]host.
https://developers.google.com/adsense/management/libraries
https://github.com/googleads/googleads-adsense-examples/tree/master/php-clientlib-1.x/v1.x/examples
 
Or integrated / extended with other Google services.

If you need only reporting (and you prefer / need SQL), BigQuery is another
option.

partners. https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/become-a-host)

galeksic,
 
Thanks for those resources! Is there a way to access data from my *own *account
and not clients through me? I don't want to have a redirect page because I
just want to pull information from my own reports and I don't need any
login from users, almost like a service account.

Hi Alex,
 
Using OAuth2, the developer and the user are different entities. We don't
support Service Accounts but you can use the API from an
automatic/unmonitored script using refresh tokens and the "offline" access
type. Every client library implements this in a different way. You can
start here:

Cheers,
Jose
