adsense api access & wrapper

Question

Can anybody give me a definitive answer to the following question:

is adsense api available to any user? or are there restrictions?

And is there a simple PHP wrapper for either case? I mostly need reporting from the adsense account.

Answer 1

Google updated a new Adsense Management API this week - details here: http://adsenseapi.blogspot.com/2011/10/adsense-management-api-primer.html

I think/hope that gives lots of new power to the under 100,000 crowd...

Answer 2

AdSense has two APIs:

• AdSense Management API - Open to everyone. Let's you check inventory and fetch reports. Probably what you're looking for.

• AdSense Host API - For sites with 100k+ pageviews/day. Let's you share the revenue from ads with your publishers (website builders, blog/news sites, etc.).

PHP is one of the fully supported languages for the AdSense APIs. There's a client library at

https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/

with sample code for the Management API in trunk/examples/adsense

Docs: https://developers.google.com/adsense/

Answer 3

The AdSense API is only avaliable to users with over 100,000 pageviews a day. If you're at or above that limit, some PHP examples are available here.
