it's works after and changed the timezone in php.ini!!

thanks! :)

Great job, thank you so much!

For those getting the following error: "Fatal error: Class 'Google_Service' not found"
use the autoload.php instead:

require_once 'Google/autoload.php';

THANK YOU! Would have saved me 5 hours if I found this earlier.

it's give white page

I needed to figure this out the other day and ended up writing a blog-post with a detailed description on how to get to the rt:activeVisitors with PHP. Hope that helps someone out there.

Warning: require_once(Google/Service/Analytics.php): failed to open stream:

help me

use this:
<?php //Google RealTime Connect require_once 'path_to/vendor/autoload.php'; $client = new Google_Client(); $client->setApplicationName("XXXX"); // your project name $client->setAuthConfig('path_to_Auth_jsno_file'); $client->addScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/analytics.readonly'); $GA_VIEW_ID = 'ga:XXXX'; // your View_ID $service = new Google_Service_Analytics($client); try { $result = $service->data_realtime->get( $GA_VIEW_ID, 'rt:activeVisitors' ); $count = $result->totalsForAllResults['rt:activeVisitors']; echo $count; } catch(Exception $e) { var_dump($e);

Hi, i wanna know whether we can?:

1. Display total page views (lifetime data) for a specific page
2. Display current active users on a page.

Thanks!
