    Hello,

    This is not a question but I wanted to share my experience with configuring Google API for the use of Toplytics with Private Authorization.
    Indeed, what is presented in the doc is not totally up to date (I guess Google makes regular changes to its process): https://www.presslabs.com/docs/code/toplytics/installation/#private-authorization

    At some point when you follow the doc you end up in the OAuth Consent screen section and you have to select the scope of the app. Click on “Add a scope”, filter for “analytics” and choose analytics.readonly, described as “See and download your Google Analytics data”.
    It seems to be the only scope which is needed.

    Thanks again for the great plugin!

    Thank you @bapman for the additional information.

    I’ll add an internal task to review and update the documentation in the following sprint cycle.
