Access via Simple API Access Key

[robj]

Is this possible? To use the 'Key for browser apps (with referers)'

I dont want to use oauth as I want reports created on behalf of users automatically, not users interacting with OAuth.

The Username/Password combo is fickle, as invalid login attempts for google analytics website can result in blocking API access.

Quick fix, put this in an initialiser.

module Garb
  module Request
    class Data
      def query_string
        @parameters.merge!("key" => "PUT API KEY HERE")
        parameter_list = @parameters.map {|k,v| "#{k}=#{v}" }
        parameter_list.empty? ? '' : "?#{parameter_list.join('&')}"
      end
    end
  end
end

Is there a way to do this now without monkey patching? I think you need an API key now to increase your limits.
