"Create a service account" link broken
alexgleason opened this issue · comments
In the readme, this link is now broken: https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/embed-api/server-side-authorization
Weird. All the other pages in that section are still there:
https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/embed-api/
In the meantime, the source for the site is still available:
Do these instructions still work?
Relevant chunk of instructions scraped from the source of the disappeared page:
Step 1: Create a service account and download the JSON key
Follow the steps in the Google Identity Platform documentation to create a service account from the Google Developer Console.
Once the service account is created, you can click the Generate New JSON Key button to create and download the key and add it to your project.
Important! Make sure to store your JSON key file privately and securely. Do not check it in to a public repository or store it on a public server.
Step 2: Add the service account as a user in Google Analytics
The service account you created in the previous step has an email address that you can add to any of the Google Analytics views you'd like to request data from. It's generally best to only grant the service account read-only access.
This works. Thanks for doing this updates so quickly!
