Hi,

We're currently testing the offline conversions upload through the API and are receiving success responses, however the conversions are not reflecting in CM360. The floodlight impressions report also shows 0 conversions for all three floodlight activities. We've run out of areas to troubleshoot so I'm hoping you'll be able to help us. Below is an example request we made and the response:

Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Conversions were displaying in SA360 but not CM360, due to the missing Quantity parameter in our API calls. CM360 API documentation does not specify this as a mandatory field, however if it isn't included it defaults to a value of 0, which causes the conversions to not display.

If anyone has this issue, make sure you're including the Quantity parameter and specifying a value of at least 1 (qty=1).
