Digital Advertising Project 
• Doubleclick For Publishers (DFP) 
• Advertising management platform 
• SOAP API (xml) 
• Oauth 2.0 (json)
Project Setup 
DFP 
• Client already has account 
• Get Network Code 
• Enable API access 
Google Developer Console 
• Create a project (Google’s “Connected App”) 
• Get Client Id and Client Secret
Create Project in the Console
Create New 
Client ID
Record 
Client ID and 
Client Secret
Google Oauth 2.0 Authentication
Authorization 
OAuth 2.0 Handshake 
• The Web Server Applications Flow : 
– The goal is to get the access token needed to 
access the API 
– We will store the access token in a custom setting 
to be readily available for use in future callouts 
– Use the refresh token to get future access 
tokens to make the callouts
Authorization 
Code Sample 
• Leverage custom settings to persist authorization related information: 
– From API specs 
• Endpoint 
• Scope 
– From Google Console 
• Client secret 
• Client ID 
– From DFP 
• Network Code 
– From Oauth handshake 
• Access token 
• Refresh token
Initiate OAuth Flow to Get Auth Code 
public string getAuthCodeUrl(string redirectUri) { 
// use the URL used when authenticating a google user 
pagereference pr = new pagereference(custSetting.AuthEndpoint__c + 'auth'); 
// add the necessary parameters 
pr.getParameters().put('response_type', 'code'); 
pr.getParameters().put('client_id', custSetting.ClientId__c); 
pr.getParameters().put('redirect_uri', redirectUri); 
pr.getParameters().put('scope', custSetting.Scope__c); 
// add required parameters needed to get an be able to use a refresh token 
pr.getParameters().put('access_type', 'offline'); 
pr.getParameters().put('approval_prompt', 'force'); 
return pr.getUrl(); 
}
Get Access Token – Prep Work 
Create internal class in the image of the json response. 
public class AccessTokenResponse { 
string access_token { get; set; } 
string refresh_token { get; set; } 
string token_type { get; set; } 
integer expires_in { get; set; } 
string id_token { get; set; } 
public AccessTokenResponse() {} 
}
Access Token Callout 
Once the user authenticated, the returned URL will include an auth code that can 
be exchanged for an access token. 
public void getAccessToken(string authCode) { 
// prepare a string to send to google as body 
string body = 'code= authCode; 
body += '&client_id= custSetting.ClientId__c; 
body += '&client_secret= custSetting.ClientSecret__c; 
body += '&redirect_uri= custSetting.redirectUri__c; 
body += '&grant_type=authorization_code'; 
// HTTP callout to Google to exchange the auth code with an access token 
// use internal class from last slide to deserialize json response 
Authenticate(body); 
}
Google SOAP API Callouts
Apex Tools for a Google SOAP API 
• Force.com Google Data API Toolkit 
– Older APIs - authentication methods are deprecated 
• Download WSDL 
– Difficult to overcome all conversion issues 
• Use HTTP callouts 
– Make http callouts with SOAP body (XML)

req.setEndpoint(endpoint); 
req.setMethod(method); 
req.setTimeout(10000); 
// set the headers and body 
req.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/xml; charset=UTF-8'); 
req.setHeader('SOAPAction', ''); 
// make the callout 
Http h = new Http(); 
HttpResponse res = h.send(req); 
// inspect results with XmsStreamReader...
