Thank you for that info, Shweta.

I would like to kindly ask you if you could confirm one thing, if possible. 
The GCLIDs that I obtain from the click_metrics_report via AdWords API, 
which are generated from call extension or click_to_call "clicks", can I 
still import them to AdWords as either "import from clicks" or "import from 
calls" conversions even if the ad never takes them to the landing page? 

We do not intend to use Google forwarding numbers because we have a third 
party call tracking service that needs to use specific numbers. We would 
like to be able to attribute these GCLIDs to the proper keyword/campaign as 
conversions. Thanks so much.

Best,
Alan
