How to map app conversion tracking api translates to google ads reports?

[Rez GodarzvandChegini]

Hi there,

I was wondering how I can map the values of network_type and network_subtype of app conversion tracking api to the ENUMs of Google Ads' ad networks types.

In general, is there a way to translate the network_type and network_subtype in conversion tracking response to an attribute/segment in Google Ads (reporting) API?

Many thanks,

Rez

Hi Rez,

Thank you for reaching out to the AdWords / Google Ads API support team.

You may note that the App Conversion Tracking API is already outside the scope of our API team. That said, our team would not be able to further comment on the mapping of both of the APIs' data or records.

In the Google Ads API's perspective, you should only be able to categorize ad network type data via the said segments.ad_network_type field.

Best regards,

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your quick response. I understand that network type data is queried via segments.ad_network_type field. However, the enums used across the two apis are not the same.

I appreciate your explanation, but I hope you understand that I'd get the same response if I ask this question from the App Conversion Tracking API team. Especially, I'm hopeful that Google Ads engages with the Conversion Tracking technology at some level to report the network (sub)type data.

I admit that I might have asked the wrong forum to comment on a cross team/product, but I'm afraid I'm blind to the right communication channel to consult this information. Would you be so kind as to point me to the right contact who can support me in this regard?

Many thanks,

Rez

Good morning,

I was just wondering if you possibly had the chance to look into my inquiry about the right contact person who can support us on the link between Google Ads and App Conversion Tracking products.

Many thanks,

Rez

Hi Peter,

Unfortunately, it seems that App Conversion Tracking API doesn't have a dedicated support channel that I can reach out to. The support contact under this page connects me with Google Ads support. The support staff told me that I should be emailing this inquiry to the Google Ads API team via googleadsa...@google.com email which I did too. So now, I'm in a limbo position without any right contact I can ask for support.

I just wished Google Ads API support could take the ownership of the cross team support in Google Ads API Products when they are tied to one another.

Alternatively, given that I'm still asking for support on a sister tool on Google Ads product suite, and arguably Google Ads API Support seems to be the converging point from other support routes, I wish you could at least point me to the right person who can shed some lights on this matter. I always have this great experience with Google Ads Script API when something goes beyond their team, they direct me to this forum which leaves some clues for me to pursue my inquiry.

Sincerely,

Rez

P.S.: The support case numbers that I linked to this issue are 7-2933000031175, 7-9801000031256, and 8-5970000031796 as well as my email to Google Ads API Support team.

Hi Rez,

I work with Peter and let me provide support to your concern.

It appears that this concern has already been raised in another email thread. With this, allow me to reiterate my latest response here from the other email thread and you may see it below. Let me know if you have further questions.

"Thank you for reaching out again.

Before proceeding to your concern, I would like to suggest first to raise your concerns and follow up questions in one email thread only if it is the same topic for better tracking and you would not miss any updates from our team.

Moving forward to your concern, please note that App Conversion Tracking API and Google Ads API is implemented separately and have different functionalities as well. With this, I would not suggest mapping the fields of the 2 APIs. Also, there is no team that provides simultaneous support for both App Conversion Tracking API and Google Ads API, with this, there is no support team that can provide support to your question.

However, you can check the field below if you want to map the network_type of the App Conversion Tracking API and Google Ads API. As for the network_subtype, there is no field in the Google Ads API that look like that field in App Conversion Tracking API.
