It isn't altered/modified. I tried using the API with a GCLID belonging to 
a different account, and I got this same error.
So, it seems the error is also displayed when there was no matching GCLID? 
Very misleading, as someone in my case might spend time wondering if they 
somehow messed up the pipeline and mutated the key.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting back to us. You may refer to this page for different error 
messages for different conversion upload errors. Your GCLID shouldn’t be 
altered/modified when importing via Google Ads API, otherwise, you would get an 
UNPARSEABLE_GCLID error.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

This message is in relation to case "ref:_00D1U1174p._5004Q2bdU7f:ref"

Thanks,

Google Ads API Team

Re: Google Click ID could not be decoded., at conversions0.gclid - This Google Click ID could not be decoded.

[Chad Wood]

Hi,

Would it be possible to update the error message to indicate that the GCLID 
could not be found within the accounts available resources?
Saying that it "cannot be decoded" makes it seem like the ID is malformed. 
That can result in wasted time and unnecessary review of working code.

Hi Jen,

Thank you for raising this concern to the Google Ads API Forum.

First of all, I want to inform you that this email will be deleted as 
containing generated logs. Moving forward to your concern, I can see that you 
are encountering an error saying "Google Click ID could not be decoded., at 
conversions0.gclid ◉ This Google Click ID could not be decoded.".

The possible reason for this is that you are uploading GCLID that does not 
exist. With this, to help you determine the GCLIDs that you can upload as 
conversions, then I can recommend generating reports using the click_view 
report. If in the event that you are using GCLIDs that are generated from the 
said report but the error persists, then you may provide the updated logs for 
further checking. You can provide it via the Reply privately to author option. 
If this option is not available, then send it instead to this email address 
googleadsapi-supp...@google.com.

Best regards,

Jinky
