    It’s important to distinguish between Google Analytics (the service) and the google-api-php-client (the client library to access Google APIs). The notice you found is about the retirement of Universal Analytics properties in Google Analytics, not about the PHP client library. The client library is just a way to interact with Google’s APIs, including but not necessarily limited to Google Analytics. As long as Google provides updates to the library or it still supports the needed functionalities after changes to Google Analytics, your usage of the google-api-php-client should not take a hit. However, it may require some changes or adjustments in your code when you switch from Universal Analytics to Google Analytics 4. Please stay updated with Google’s official information regarding this transition.
