Hi,

Please see the attachment from Google Ads Account.
I have received 11 conversions at cost 666.46, so Cost/Conversion should be 60.587, but Google Ads Account is showing 56.72.

Do I need to consider something to get those data using API?

Thanks,

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out. The value returned by the API should match that of the UI. That value can be retrieved using the CostPerConversion metric (or metrics.cost_per_conversion in Google Ads API).

If you believe that the UI value is incorrect, I would recommend reaching out to the Google Ads Product Team here as they will be more equipped to assist you.

Hello Mitchell,

No, I think I have not able to explain to you properly.

My question is I am not fetching that metrics as CostPerConversion is Cost/Converison.
I was fetching base data like Cost and Conversions and then applying the Cost/Conversion to get CostPerConversion.

Why this formula is not applicable in this case?
I have received 11 conversions at cost 666.46, so Cost/Conversion = 666.46/11 = 60.587, but Google Ads Account is showing 56.72.

Thanks,
