Hi Jonathan, How ad tags and GCLID work is beyond Google Ads API support scope, I suggest you reach out to our product support team for further assistance.
With that being said, here's Use a transaction ID to minimize duplicate conversions. My guess based on About enhanced conversions is that uploading enhanced conversions via API relies on an order Id that is matched with the order Id sent to an ad tag that generated the GCLID that the order Id is associated with. I would also guess you would use the API for enhanced conversions when the user data you want to match the conversion with isn't available on the page where the order Id is sent to the ad tag, but to be certain you would have to ask our product support team.
