Google Analytics Reporting Api - PHP: Add user account

What I want to do

Where the problem is

I read this Google developers PHP guide. However, the sample code connects to first account that is already shared with the app.

I want to see a piece of code that ask user for their credentials and consequently provides access to their account.

On Stack I've already found this answer Service Applications and Google Analytics API V3: Server-to-server OAuth2 authentication?. However, mentioned APP_EMAIL is not a particular user's e-mail, but developer.gserviceaccount.com identification for the app created in the console.

Also I found this thread Google Analytics Core Reporting API Version 3.0 without client login. It seems that similar topic is solved there, but the important part of code (from my point of view) is missing there.

First of all, make sure to grab refresh token by settings access type to offline. Then Create a separate page for reporting. Separate page should be using account id and refresh token for all reporting, and if it gives you an error on token, you can either refresh it yourself, or send them back to login page.

you only need to ask for credentials once and you get access to all accounts. The php guide only uses the first account, however you can iterate through all of them and get more

$client = new Google_Client();
$client->setAuthConfig(__DIR__ . '/creds/client_secrets.json');
$client->setIncludeGrantedScopes(true);
$client->setAccessType("offline");
$client->setApprovalPrompt('force');
$client->addScope(Google_Service_Analytics::ANALYTICS_EDIT);
$client->addScope(Google_Service_Analytics::ANALYTICS_READONLY);

// If the user has already authorized this app then get an access token
// else redirect to ask the user to authorize access to Google Analytics.
if (isset($_SESSION['access_token']) && $_SESSION['access_token']) {
        // Set the access token on the client.
        $client->setAccessToken($_SESSION['access_token']);
        // Create an authorized analytics service object.
        $analytics = new Google_Service_Analytics($client);
        $accounts=getAccountIds($analytics);
        foreach($accounts as $acc)
        {
         var_dump($acc);
}
}
else {
        $redirect_uri = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/oauth2callback.php';
        header('Location: ' . filter_var($redirect_uri, FILTER_SANITIZE_URL));
}
