display leaderboard using google play services

Question

I am trying to display a leaderboard for my game using google play services. The game is html/js. I have an instance of gapi loaded. I submit a score in the following way:

var json={};
json.leaderboardId='dlsfhqo3irhq';
json.score=666;
gapi.client.games.scores.submit(json);

I then try to display a leaderboard as follows:

var json={};
json.leaderboardId='dlsfhqo3irhq';
json.collection='PUBLIC';
json.timeSpan='ALL_TIME';
gapi.client.games.scores.listWindow(json);

Nothing appears. I have set up the leaderboard in the developer console which says it is ready for testing. Also I am displaying the leaderboard in response to a click so that no popups are blocked.

All of the google (game) api's have two stages. First is to setup the request, then you need to execute.

Your code should look something like:

var json= { leaderboardId: 'dlsfhqo3irhq', collection: 'PUBLIC', timeSpan:'ALL_TIME'};
var request = gapi.client.games.scores.listWindow(json);
request.execute(function(response) { 
// do something
});
