Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Hi Robert, Thank you for getting back to us. I hope you are doing well today. Moving forward to your concern about this "will that ever be a possibility for that ?" As my colleague mentioned in his last response "I'm afraid that it's not possible to see conversions in real time. Also, I can co

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Hi Robert, Thank you for your latest email. Based on our documentation, it takes up to 3 hours for imported conversion statistics to appear in your Google Ads account for last-click attribution. For other search attribution models, it can take longer than 3 hours. Having said that, I'm afraid

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

When (if) I get API access and want to post conversions in real time as they occur via a post request to the endpoint with access token and gclid, will I be able to? or do you ALWAYS need to wait 4 hours after the click to send a conversion? I wish there was a way to mimic the

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Hi Darwin, If I set "validate_only to true" isn't it still be returning "EXPIRED_EVENT" on dev/qa environment after 90 days? So we cannot test google ads api response (check if whole flow "request" is correct). All we can do is take production GCLID and refresh to a new one after "max 90 days"?

Hi Marcin, I'm Darwin, also a member of the Google Ads API team. I work with Jinky and allow me to assist you here. I hope you are doing well today. Thank you for providing your business use case. Please note that the Google Ads API mirrors the Google Ads UI. meaning, if the feature is not ava

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

We use conversions on production and it looks like it is working correctly. However we also have e2e tests and we need GCLID to check if google ads api response was fine. Those tests check whole flow (request/response) on dev/qa environment. In our config for now we use special qa/dev conversio

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Hi Marcin, We appreciate your request for updates to the feature request "Dummy GCLID". However, could you please provide a business use case here? Because, in the Google Ads API, GCLID is automatically created, and you need to have a production account in order to get a GCLID. Having that said

Hi Matt, Just checking out with you if they received the feedback suggestion about "gclid" IDs. And if they are willing to implement a tool to generate those. On Thursday, February 10, 2022 at 4:27:08 PM UTC+1 Hustle OU wrote: > Sounds good Matt! Thanks. > > That will be great to have (dummy G

Sounds good Matt! Thanks. That will be great to have (dummy GCLID) so that we can properly test without running live traffic. On Thursday, February 10, 2022 at 4:11:02 PM UTC+1 adsapi wrote: > Hello, > > Campaign Experiments can be used in both the API and UI. Please allow me > to make a featu

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Hello, Campaign Experiments can be used in both the API and UI. Please allow me to make a feature request, subject to review, on your behalf for a testable 'dummy' GCLID. Relevant updates can be found on the Ads Developer blog. Regards, Matt Google Ads API Team Matt Google Ads API Team ref:_00

Re: How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

Ok, I see. Can we use the "Campaign Experiments" directly in the Google Ads UI or does it need to go through API? We would like to test that our Google Ads API V9 implementation works correctly. We have implemented the Upload Offline Conversions (CLICKS) service. To test that service a valid G

How to get valid GCLIDs (for testing)?

We would like to test our current implementation of the Google Ads API V9. For that, we need valid GCLID values. Is there a way to get these valid GCLID values without launching a "real" campaign? For example, for Facebook, they have this "Facebook Debugger Tool" where you can get valid "fbcli
