Hello,


Anyone managed to get the Google Ads Events and Users destination to work?
It’s been two weeks of back and forth exchange with Google to obtain a Google Ads API key, to finally receive this:

​​​​

 

Here’s why I need to get this integration working:

  • I have been reporting conversion to Google Analytics (including the session_id and gclid)
  • Unfortunately, while this works great to report conversion to Google Analytics, they are somehow ignore by Google Adwords automatic synchronisation with Google Analytics.
  • It seems that reporting conversions using the gclid through the Google Adwords Events and Users destination is the only way.

 

 Would love help here… Reporting conversion has never been so hard! 

Hey @parisetflorian, I connected with the team about this and they shared that they updated the Google Ads event streaming connector to address this a couple weeks back. The documentation update is pending at the moment.

 

With this update you will no longer need to provide the developer token. If you try creating a new sync now, you should be able set it up with the Google Cloud service account, the Google Ads customer id, and the Google Ads conversion action ID.

 

 

Let me know if you run into any issues!
