Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to our API support team.

Since this channel and our team specializes in AdWords / Google Ads API related concerns only, our team would not be able to provide comments on Google Analytics.

However, in the Google Ads API's perspective, you should be able to perform conversion adjustments by following this guide. I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Hi,
I will change the question form: if I upload Click conversion to specific conversion Action in google ads using offline conversion (c# code) (you can see the code URL in the question above) and there is another conversion(with same gclid and same values) coming from other source like google analytics, can I take only one conversion and ignore the second to prevent duplications, or I need to create two sources in google ads like this

and upload the each conversion in correspond conversion action

Hi Bahaa,

Thank you for more information on your concern.

In the Google Ads API's perspective, and as mentioned here, duplicate conversions are allowed and would not return errors. However, only the first instance will be recorded and the succeeding duplicates will be ignored.

Since you are also using a different source (Google Analytics) then I would recommend that you verify this scenario with the Google Ads Product Support team via this link, for further guidance. I hope this helps.
