Login to Google AdSense using PHP

Here is an example demonstrating the power of cURL. This code posts all the correct post fields to Googles universal Account Services login and brings the user directly to the AdSense Overview page. Cookies are used in this example as well as setting the USER AGENT and REFERRER HTTP headers.

PHP Code

<?php
/* "AdSense totals sent via SMS to cellphone"

http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/5349.htm

 
"Follow your Adsense earnings with an RSS reader"

http://curl.askapache.com/libcurl/php/examples/rss-adsense.html

 
"Auto-Login to Google Analytics to impress Clients"
http://www.askapache.com/webmaster/login-google-analytics.html */
 
// Uncomment to only allow from IP 1.1.1.1
// if($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] !== '1.1.1.1') die();
$username=urlencode('myemail@gmail.com');
$password="mypassword";
$gacookie="./.gacookie";
 
$postdata="Email=$username&Passwd=$password&GA3T=5AS_gBsvDHI&nui=15&fpui=3&askapache=http://www.askapache.com/"
."&service=adsense&ifr=true&rm=hide&itmpl=true&hl=en_US&alwf=true&continue=https://www.google.com/adsense/report/overview&null=Sign in";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginBoxAuth");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 60);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $gacookie);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $gacookie);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'https://www.google.com/adsense/report/overview');
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postdata);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
$AskApache_result = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $AskApache_result;
unlink($gacookie);
exit;
