In order to connect to a Google Analytic (GA) profile, the following are needed

1. A GA profile ID – the one you want to report on
2. A service account -email address, client ID and key (download file)
3. Ensure email address from the service account is permitted to access the google analytics profile

Once the GA client is set-up then the following code will return hourly GA data for the given profile.
