How to load data from Google Analytics Api php via cron?

Question

PHP

I made a script that takes information from analytics and writes to the database, but the token exists only for 1 hour, how can I make it possible to run the script with cron? and the token lived for a very long time or how to update it without re-authorization?

Answer 1
