I want to start developing a tool that runs daily via cron for getting daily analytical data from one channel, or video, etc.. through the "Youtube Analytics API". And not what is the best way to approach it.
I have read the documentation of Google and and I have several questions:
- I created the project in the console (https://code.google.com/apis/console/) but I doubt what kind of application I have to choose when I create a Client ID (Web Application, Service Account or Installed aplplication).
- What PHP library use? It's a very new API and not much information. In the Google GData site there is a warning about that "Most newer Google APIs Google Data APIs are not Google Data APIs." and in the google-api-php-client, no examples of this API.
- What is the best method for authentication in a cron?
As you can see I am very confuse, can someone help me, please?
Thank you.
