I recently stumbled upon an article that describes how a conversion can be shared between multiple accounts

Given that I have a conversion ID from the reporting service, is it possible to check whether it's a shared conversion or if it belongs to the account?

I've used the ConversionTrackerService to request all conversions for a given account. This is the response I get for one conversion I know is shared:

(UploadConversion){
         id = (Censored ID)
         name = "Offline Visit Revenue"
         status = "ENABLED"
         category = "DEFAULT"
         viewthroughLookbackWindow = 1
         ctcLookbackWindow = 90
         countingType = "MANY_PER_CLICK"
         defaultRevenueValue = 0.0
         defaultRevenueCurrencyCode = "USD"
         alwaysUseDefaultRevenueValue = False
         excludeFromBidding = True
         attributionModelType = "LAST_CLICK"
         ConversionTracker.Type = "UploadConversion"
         isExternallyAttributed = False
      },

If you're interested I can send you the account ID and conversion ID. Not sure if I should send them in the public forum.

Hello Erik, 

The ConversionTrackerService will return the conversion trackers of the MCC and the client accounts along with the CIDs of the conversiontypeownercustomerid. You may also use the CustomerService.getCustomers() which will return the effectiveConversionTrackingId along with the customer ID. Can you give this a try and let me know if you have any other questions?

Hello Bharani,

I was unaware of the conversiontypeownercustomerid. I read up on that and it looks like that what i'm after.
