Download the PHP package particle-academy/google-ads-php without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package particle-academy/google-ads-php. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package google-ads-php

Google Ads

Google Ads for fancy-flow — as four imported, versioned packages, one per runtime. Not vendored source: a copy cannot be upgraded, and third-party APIs change.

Runtime Package Install
Authoring surface (every host) @particle-academy/google-ads-ui npm install @particle-academy/google-ads-ui
Node @particle-academy/google-ads-js npm install @particle-academy/google-ads-js
PHP 8.4+ particle-academy/google-ads-php composer require particle-academy/google-ads-php
Python 3.11+ fancy-google-ads pip install fancy-google-ads

The ui package is the editor surface and is React on every host — a PHP or Python project installs it and its own runtime package, and never the js one.

What it costs you

One dependency: @particle-academy/fancy-connector-core (or particle-academy/fancy-connector-core on Composer), which the js and php packages pull in themselves. The Python package has zero runtime dependencies.

No Google Ads SDK. Plain HTTP, deliberately: a vendor SDK is third-party code subject to the kit's full approval bar, and one per provider is hundreds of dependencies nobody is tracking.

Setting it up

Everything below is generated from provider/manifest.json, so it cannot disagree with what the packages do.

Credentials

A Google Ads connection holds 6 values.

Two kinds of value, and mixing them up matters. A provider credential is ONE value for the whole installation — an OAuth app's client secret serves every connected account. An account credential is one per connected account. A host that stores the second where it stores the first lets one account's credentials reach another's.

Field Scope Secret Where it comes from
OAuth client ID per installation not secret The Google Cloud OAuth client shared by the installation.
OAuth client secret per installation secret The matching Google Cloud OAuth client secret.
Developer token per installation secret The 22-character Google Ads API developer token from the manager account's API Center. Google says to treat it like a password; one token identifies the installed application.
Access token per connected account secret The connected Google user's one-hour OAuth access token.
Refresh token per connected account secret The reusable offline token used to replace expired access tokens.
Manager customer ID (optional) per connected account not secret Optional. The manager account's 10-digit customer ID without hyphens. Required when the OAuth user reaches a client through that manager; omit it for direct access.

Every request carries developer-token and login-customer-id (when set) alongside the primary authorization, filled from the credentials above.

Authorising

Google Ads uses OAuth2 (authorization_code). The package DECLARES the exchange; the HOST performs it — a consent screen needs a browser, a redirect URI and somewhere to persist the result, and all three belong to the host.

The refresh tokens do not rotate: the same one is reusable, so a refresh may safely be retried and may run concurrently. Stated rather than assumed, because the opposite — a provider that spends the token and revokes the grant on a replay — looks identical until it happens.

The estate

Google Ads has a test estate on the same host, reached with credentials from a SEPARATE test account you register. Selecting sandbox mode uses those credentials.

Use a dedicated Google Ads test manager and test client account. Test and production hierarchies cannot interact; test ads never serve or incur cost, but some features such as billing, conversion uploads and serving reports cannot be exercised there.

What it can do

Actions

customer_list_accessible — Accessible Google Ads customers

List Google Ads customer resource names directly accessible to the authenticated user. Manager-linked client accounts are not included; query the account hierarchy after choosing a directly accessible manager.

GET /v25/customers:listAccessibleCustomers · reads only — safe to replay

Takes no input.

Run it before you have credentials

Every operation ships a faker, whether or not Google Ads has a sandbox. Set a node's mode to fake and it returns the shape Google Ads actually publishes — the same field names, deterministically — so you can wire the downstream nodes before touching an account, a key, or a network.

This repository is generated

provider/ is the source. Everything under packages/ is emitted from it and must not be hand-edited — CI regenerates and diffs on every push, and the next protocol sync destroys anything it finds. See AGENTS.md.

Two namespaces, which do not match on purpose

The repo is github.com/Fancy-Friends/google-ads; the packages publish under particle-academy. Nothing derives one from the other — the names come from weaver's friends.json and nowhere else.
