Is Click Performance Report ever adjusted for fraud clicks?

[HK]

Hi,

Can someone confirm whether the Click Performance Report is ever adjusted for fraud clicks? Based on what we are seeing, for example requesting this report two days in the past, fraud clicks don't seem to be removed while they are in the Ad Performance Report for the same date.

Thanks,

Hans

Hi Hans,

The Click Performance Report includes both valid and invalid clicks. However, there is no way to validate whether the GCLID is associated with which kind of click using this report. The closest thing to do would be to use either the Campaign or Account Performance Report and include the InvalidClicks field. You can use then compare that to the count of GCLIDs that you suspect are invalid clicks for a given account or campaign.

Regards,

Anthony
