I'm struggling to trigger a Google Apps Script Function which builds many dropdowns of a Google Spreadsheet.
I need this data to be updated daily on this Google Spreadsheet so I must call the function.
Seems like I'm required to have a client-side authentication which I'm reluctant to force it to happen.
I have set already the Google API PHP Client which does batch updates, get requests and control users and its roles.
Here's how the code looks like:
public function updateTemplate ()
{
$client = $this->getClient();
$service = new Google_Service_Script($client);
$scriptId = $this->gScriptId;
// Create an execution request object.
$request = new Google_Service_Script_ExecutionRequest();
$request->setFunction('SetUpNewSpreadsheet');
try {
// Make the API request.
$response = $service->scripts->run($scriptId, $request);
echo "here<pre>";
print_r($response);
exit;
I'm getting the following response error:
Caught exception: {
"error": {
"code": 401,
"message": "Request is missing required authentication credential. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.",
"errors": [ {
"message": "Request is missing required authentication credential. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.",
"domain": "global",
"reason": "unauthorized"
} ]
, "status": "UNAUTHENTICATED"
}
}
I've checked the message errors and docs already. I'm wondering if maybe I'm missing something or if I can find a way to execute that request without forcing a client-side login?
Has anyone been through it?
