Connecting to Google Analytics API - A Journey

There is a Google Ruby client for doing this. They also have documentation.

  1. Follow the instructions for creating a service account.
  2. Add the service account to your Google Analytics account user list.
  3. Create a Project for your new API project if you wish. I usually do and name it something related to the project.
  4. Create a service account.
  5. Enable the Google Analytics Reporting API
  6. In GSuite Domain Security Settings go to API Controls and check "Trust internal, domain-owned apps."

Scope - Analytics Reporting v4
