Hi,
It seems like you have missed our previous response. Yes, we have an update on your issue. Please note that our team cannot provide bespoke implementation solutions. Please reach out to your Google Ads Account Manager for strategic guidance. With regard to your specific queries, please find below the answers: 1. Backend Matching API: No, GCLIDs cannot be retrieved via any Google API. Standard offline conversion imports specifically require capturing the GCLID on the client side. 2. ECL Guidelines: This scenario uses GCLID-less ECL, where reliability would then depend entirely on PII accuracy. We would recommend ensuring phone numbers are normalized to E.164 format before hashing. Please note that match rates for this implementation are typically lower than implementation with gclid/tag data as we have less data point for matching. You should experiment to see if the results meet your needs. 3. Partnerships/ Business Dev team: We cannot facilitate these requests via this channel. You need to contact your Account Manager or reach out to Google Ads Product Support Team, which should be able to direct you regarding this concern. Thanks, Google Ads API Team Feedback How was our support today?
