I'm working on a tracking project and I'm trying to get Google Ads recommendation data from the accounts, more specifically, from "Measurement"(as explained in link 1) recommendations, such as enhanced conversions. I made a sheet that gets all of the recommendation data from the Google Ads API, but it’s getting no "Measurement" recommendations even though the accounts are registering this type of conversion in Google Ads, what could be the issue?

I also can't find the correct name for the types of "Measurement" recommendations in the Google Ads documentation, I thought they would be on link 2, which has recommendation_type for other recommendations. Does anyone know where I can find them?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Google Ads API Forum.

You mentioned a sheet that gets all of the recommendation data from the Google Ads API, but it’s getting no "Measurement" recommendations even though the accounts are registering this type of conversion in Google Ads. Could you elaborate more on this and share with us the un-cropped UI screenshot of the data that you are referring to? Asking this so we could provide guidance accordingly.

You may send the requested screenshot via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Moreover, with regards to the correct name for the types of "Measurement" recommendations in the Google Ads documentation, could you try checking the link below for Optimization score and recommendations and see if this contains the recommendation types that you are looking for?
