For the last 12 hours or so, the ConversionRate value in the performance reports is being returned as 0.09 instead of 9%.  Was this change planned?

Sorry, I meant the ClickConversionRate column.

We have noticed the same thing.  In addition, the CostPerConvertedClick column (which is supposed to be Money, i.e. micros) has changed as well.  It used to be like any other Money column, returning micros like 750580000, but now we're seeing things like 0.0 and "750,580,000.0", causing us parsing errors (you can't parse these as longs, which is what our code does).

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Greg,

Thanks for reporting this. We've had another user report this as well. Having multiple people confirm is really helpful. I don't know of this being planned. We're looking into it.

Best,

Hi Oliver,

Thanks for the additional information. We're looking into this one as well. I'm not sure if these two are related, yet. I'll get back to you as I find out more.

Could you please click Reply privately to author in the forum and send me some of the customer IDs where you're seeing this? Also, are you seeing this consistently or intermittently?

Hi Oliver and Greg,

There's no need to send any additional information. We've been working on this over the last couple of hours. You shouldn't be seeing any issues with those reporting fields anymore. Thanks for speaking up so quickly. Please reach out if you continue to see any issues like this with these fields.

Thanks again,
Nadine, AdWords API Team
