Re: validate GCLID

2018-01-10 Thread 'Vincent Racaza (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum 
Hi Sandeep,

The Click Performance Report 

 is 
the only way that you can validate your GCLID. However, it may take up to 3 
hrs (based on this guide ) 
for the GCLIDs to be present in the report after the click occurred. If you 
have "EA" and "Cj" as values of your GCLIDs, then they might be invalid 
GCLIDs on which AdWords will delete them after few days for accuracy.

Let me know if you have further clarifications.

Thanks,
Vincent

validate GCLID

2018-01-10 Thread Sandeep Patle 
Hi,

I am working on a application where I need to validate the GCLID before 
using it.

I found a related post - 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/o-zZiL3MNU8

But I can not validate it from report. 

Some time I found wrong GCLID - like 'EA', 'Cj'. As I know length of GCLID 
is from 25 to 100.

So can we use this as validation?

Thanks,
Sandeep

Validate GCLID

2014-04-17 Thread yoshi 
Hi,

I know the *GCLID* value is random (parameters encoded using Protocol 
Buffers) but is there a way to validate the id?

Kind regards

Re: Validate GCLID

2014-04-17 Thread Josh Radcliff (AdWords API Team) 
Hi,

Could you provide more details on your use case?  AdWords will try to remove 
invalid clicks from reportshttps://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2549113, 
if that's what you are asking.  If you are trying to determine if a GCLID 
is invalid you could compare it to the GCLIDs in the Click Performance 
Reporthttps://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports#click, 
but there will be a delayhttps://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2544985. 
 In addition, AdWords may detect that a click is invalid a few days after 
it occurred, so you would need to rerun your report a few days later if you 
needed 100% accuracy.

If I haven't answered your question please provide some more information on 
what you are trying to achieve.

Cheers,
Josh, AdWords API Team
