GoogleMyBusiness API PHP Wrapper

Google privately provides its GoogleMyBusiness API to the developers. Being private, the SDK for this API is not available in the Google Services PHP SDK. This projects provides a goto and easy to implement way to use GoogleMyBusiness API.

Requesting Access

Being private API, you need to request access to the same API via the following form for your Google project. You may need to provide your project id and use case.

Credentials

Once your API request got approved, you need to generate credentials i.e client_id and client_secret. With that, you also need to generate refresh token for the following scope

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/business.manage

If you dont know much about how to refresh token, follow the instruction below:

  • While generating credentials in Google Developer Console for your API, enter https://google.myphpnotes.com in authorised javascript field and https://google.myphpnotes.com/callback.php in the redirect_uri filed.
  • Then, go to https://google.myphpnotes.com
  • Provide your client id and client secret in the given field and add scope as following `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/business.manage
  • On submission, you will be requested to authorize access to your Google account. Select the respective account and allow the given scope.
  • On redirection, you will get several important information like access_token and refresh token.
  • Note down the refresh token from that.

Installation

You can install this library to your project via composer using the following command:

composer require adnanhussainturki/google-my-business-php

List Accounts

The GMB works something like this. Your Google Account have many accounts (usually one) and each account contains multiple locations. `

$gmb = new GoogleMyBusiness("APP_KEY", "APP_SECRET");
$gmb->setRefreshToken("_REFRESH_TOKEN_");

$account = new Account();
$account->provideClient($gmb);

$accounts = $account->list();
$firstAccount = $accounts[0];`

List Locations

$gmb = new GoogleMyBusiness("APP_KEY", "APP_SECRET");
$gmb->setRefreshToken("_REFRESH_TOKEN_");

$account = new Account();
$account->provideClient($gmb);

$accounts = $account->list();
$firstAccount = $accounts[0];

$locations = $accounts[0]->locations();
$firstLocation = $locations[0];

List Location Posts

$gmb = new GoogleMyBusiness("APP_KEY", "APP_SECRET");
$gmb->setRefreshToken("_REFRESH_TOKEN_");

$account = new Account();
$account->provideClient($gmb);

$accounts = $account->list();
$firstAccount = $accounts[0];

$locations = $accounts[0]->locations();
$firstLocation = $locations[0];

$posts = $firstLocation->posts();
$firstPost = $posts[0];

List Location Medias

$gmb = new GoogleMyBusiness("APP_KEY", "APP_SECRET");
$gmb->setRefreshToken("_REFRESH_TOKEN_");

$account = new Account();
$account->provideClient($gmb);

$accounts = $account->list();
$firstAccount = $accounts[0];

$locations = $accounts[0]->locations();
$firstLocation = $locations[0];

$posts = $firstLocation->posts();
$firstPost = $posts[0];

$medias = $firstLocation->medias();
$firstMedia = $medias[0];

Create Media

$media = new Media;
$media->provideClient($gmb); // GoogleMyBusiness Client for making credentials available to the media class.
$media->setLocationId($firstLocation->getLocationId()); // Location ID
$media->setCategory("ADDITIONAL");
$media->setFormat('PHOTO');
$media->setSourceUrl("https://cdn.torksky.com/projects/torksky_control/production/products/06019E50K0/ff37c4a25fcf48975831153cc376dfdd.jpeg");
$media->setDescription("Bosch GAS 15");
$media = $media->create();

Create Post

$post = new Post;
$post->provideClient($gmb);
$post->setLocationId($firstLocation->getLocationId());
$post->setCallToAction("ORDER", "https://torksky.com/catalogue/70d1f7b121c397fafc00c6127e7d14c2/view");
$post->setName("Bosch GAS 15");
$post->setDescription("Bosch GAS 15 order now");
$post->setLanguageCode("en");
$post->addMedia($media);
