Hi,

I use Google Adword API v201409 to get Tracking status, Repeat rate, Tracking event.

But I can not get the following informations:

- Tracking status: No recent conversions,  Recording conversions,  Tag inactive

- Repeat rate

- Tracking event: get Click or Page load option.

Thanks.

Hello,

If you would like to get historical information on conversions, then check out our reports page. Many of the performance reports have conversion metrics.

Hi,

I using ConversionTrackerService to get Conversion actions.

But I have some questions as below:

1. Tracking status

How to get Conversion tracking status: "Unverified", "No recent conversions", "Recording conversions", "Tag inactive" by ConversionTrackerService.

2. Repeat rate

          How to get this value? (by ConversionTrackerService)

3. Tracking event

How to get Page load or Click option of conversion webpage? (by ConversionTrackerService)

4. Conversion value option

How to get value options: “Each time it happens, the conversion has the same value”, “The value of this conversion action may vary (for instance, by purchase price”,  and “Don't assign a value”

Thanks.

Hello,

Thanks for clarifying what you need. There isn't always an exact one to one mapping for what you're asking, but you can still gather the same information. 

1. Tracking Status

=> In ConversionTracker, the status field has descriptions that match each of the values you mentioned. For example, ENABLED means Recording conversions.

2. Repeat Rate

=> It looks like this value can be calculated based on the data in ConversionTrackerStats.

3. Tracking event

=> It looks like category in ConversionTracker has Page Load matching to PAGE_VIEW. 

4. Conversion value option

=> In ConversionTracker, the alwaysUseDefaultRevenueValue and defaultRevenueValue fields used together control each of the 3 options.

Hi Nadine!

I don't understand about information below:

1. Tracking Status

On API, status field has 3 values (Enable, Disable and Hidden)

On Adwords website, tracking status has  5 values ("Unverified", "No recent conversions", "Recording conversions", "Tag inactive  and "Removed")

So, how to mapping ?

2. Repeat rate

Can you detail explain for me?

3. Tracking event

I try to switch 2 options Click and Page load, but when using API to get data. I don't identity what field matching with Click and Page load options.

4. Conversion value option

This problem is resolved.

Thanks for your support again.

Hello,

To get this all this information from the ConversionTrackerService requires combining multiple fields in the API. What are you trying to build, or what is your goal? Perhaps, there's another service I can recommend to get this kind of data that doesn't require doing calculations or combining fields.

Hi Nadine,

I need build a desktop application to manage Conversion tracker. I've taken the most of infomation from ConversionTrackerService except "Tracking status", "Repeat rate" and "Tracking event".

Thanks for your support!

Hello Nadine,

I am also looking at for conversion tracking status like mention on below point

1. Tracking Status

On API, status field has 3 values (Enable, Disable and Hidden)

On Adwords website, tracking status has  5 values ("Unverified", "No recent conversions", "Recording conversions", "Tag inactive  and "Removed")

I want to inform our internal user about tag Unverified if by mistakenly conversion tracker code removed from website.

Greetings!

Thanks for doing your due diligence in looking through our forum first. In the future, if the forum post looks old, just start a new forum post and reference the old one. That way, people on the old one don't get bumped. Just to save time, I won't have you start a new one this time. For something to be Unverified, it this conversion type has never had any conversions. That can be checked in another place other than status. I double-checked our code base to be sure, but you can also look at the lastReceivedRequestTime field to see if there is a value there. If you don't see a value, then there haven't been any conversion, and it is unverified.

Hi Nadine,

Thanks for your reply.

On Adwords website, tracking status has  5 values, I am using ConversionTrackerService to get Conversion actions.

'Unverified' = lastReceivedRequestTime value is empty.

'No recent conversions' = mostRecentConversionDate date value is not within last 7 days.

'Recording conversions' =  status is ENABLED.

'Tag inactive' = lastReceivedRequestTime value is empty and mostRecentConversionDate date value is not within last 7 days.
                                OR
                       status is HIDDEN.
         
'Removed' = status is DISABLED.
