Hi,

I was trying to using Adwords API upload some gclids to Google Adwords to do the offline tracking conversion. I use "soap" method to connect to the server, and use the sample code UploadOfflineConversions.php (modified a little bit, changed the setting up new conversion code). 

I have succeed connected to the API. ( Use the example show all ad campaigns under my account). 

And also succeed upload the gclid to the Adwords account.

Example showed here:



I also noticed the successful upload to Adwords console. :

2 Clicks and one conversion. But the value somehow is 0. 

The conversion value is set at 10. I did all these process last Thursday and Friday. But I still didn't see any update on this. 

Could some one help me what's maybe wrong in the process?

I also have another 2 questions if somebody could help:

1) Should I wait 4-6 hours after the conversion is completed, then upload the gclid to the Adwords?
2) How long should I expect the conversion show up in the Adwords console?

I find these information on the page: 

Not sure if my understanding is right or not.

Mellon,

According to the document, it takes about 3 hours for your imported conversions statistics to show up in your AdWords account.
Also, "Offline conversions uploaded more than 90 days after the associated last click won’t be imported into AdWords".  Please make sure this is not the case.

Otherwise, could I trouble you to send the logged SOAP request/response (stripping out sensitive information such as Developer Token, Auth Token, etc) by using the "Reply to Author" feature?

Are you able to see the upload status in the UI?

Thanks!

Hi Ray Tsang,

Can you please help me as well. 

I tried last night running the script, but I cannot find anything on the adwords site where to look for the status. 

Response from API ddidn't contain any error message so I assume that post was successful, but would like a confirmation. 

Anyway to see logs just like when you upload conversions in CSV format manually?

I attached the xml logs here. 

Thanks

Hi Joey,

If the API call succeeded, then that's a sign that the data got imported.
