Google Ads API for Laravel

Integration of googleads/googleads-php-lib in Laravel and Lumen (version >5).

Setup

• Run $ composer require spotonlive/laravel-google-ads

Laravel

• (Only for Laravel 5.4 or minor) Add provider to config/app.php

'providers' => [
    LaravelGoogleAds\LaravelGoogleAdsProvider::class,
],

• Run $ php artisan vendor:publish to publish the configuration file config/google-ads.php and insert:
  • developerToken
  • clientId & clientSecret
  • refreshToken

Lumen

• Add provider to bootstrap/app.php

$app->register(LaravelGoogleAds\LaravelGoogleAdsProvider::class);

• Copy vendor/spotonlive/laravel-google-ads/config/config.php to config/google-ads.php and insert:

  • developerToken
  • clientId & clientSecret
  • refreshToken

• Add config to bootstrap/app.php

$app->configure('google-ads');

Generate refresh token

This requires that the clientId and clientSecret is from a native application.

Run $ php artisan googleads:token:generate and open the authorization url. Grant access to the app, and input the access token in the console. Copy the refresh token into your configuration config/google-ads.php

Basic usage

The following example is for AdWords, but the general code applies to all products.

<?php

namespace App\Services;

use LaravelGoogleAds\Services\AdWordsService;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\AdWordsServices;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\AdWordsSessionBuilder;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\v201806\cm\CampaignService;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\v201806\cm\OrderBy;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\v201806\cm\Paging;
use Google\AdsApi\AdWords\v201806\cm\Selector;

class Service
{
    /** @var AdWordsService */
    protected $adWordsService;
    
    /**
     * @param AdWordsService $adWordsService
     */
    public function __construct(AdWordsService $adWordsService)
    {
        $this->adWordsService = $adWordsService;
    }

    public function campaigns()
    {
        $customerClientId = 'xxx-xxx-xx';

        $campaignService = $this->adWordsService->getService(CampaignService::class, $customerClientId);

        // Create selector.
        $selector = new Selector();
        $selector->setFields(array('Id', 'Name'));
        $selector->setOrdering(array(new OrderBy('Name', 'ASCENDING')));

        // Create paging controls.
        $selector->setPaging(new Paging(0, 100));

        // Make the get request.
        $page = $campaignService->get($selector);
    }
}
