Re: Conversion Window Correction

2017-05-31 Thread Zweitze
1. If you consider that very few conversion types actually need the 90-day 
window:
First call the ConversionTrackerService, request all conversion types. Then 
determine the largest conversion window, which is in field 
ctcLookbackWindow. Note: if you also synchronize ViewThrough conversions, 
you should also consider viewthroughLookbackWindow!
You could now use that maximum instead of 90 days. It's not perfect, 
because the setting may change between syncs.

Another solution is request an account report, only aggregated to 
individual days first, and compare the conversions in that report with the 
contents of your local database - you should re-sync from the oldest 
discrepancy again.

2. You can use multithreading or multiple machines to request multiple 
reports at the same time. You can also use asynchronous communication, but 
not all libraries support that - at least the .NET library doesn't.

Re: Conversion Window Correction

2017-05-30 Thread 'Shwetha Vastrad (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum
Hi Ryan, 

Since metrics may occasionally be updated when a conversion occurs days 
after the initial click, it is recommended that you update your reports to 
get the recent account data. You can chose the frequency at which you 
perform this update based on the conversion window for the conversion 
trackers in your account. A report request can only include data from a 
single AdWords account for a particular report type. You need to issue 
separate requests for each report type and for each account. You could 
consider using the AwReporting  
framework 
for large scale AdWords API reporting. You can specify the report types and 
fields for which you want to get data. 

Regards,
Shwetha, AdWords API Team.

Conversion Window Correction

2017-05-30 Thread Ryan Blecher

My understanding is that the Conversion Window is finalized is at a max of 
90 days. Our application syncs reports nightly to account for the previous 
day, but we need to account for conversion correction that take place much 
further back than that. 

   1. Are there better ways to do this than sync reports for the past 90 
   days nightly and check if conversion counts are different each day? 
   The discrepancy is most cases is < 1% and it seems inefficient to fetch 
   data that is unchanged.
   
   2. Is there any way to bulk download reports for multiple users? ie. 
   KeywordPerformanceReport for multiple campaigns.
   or can we get all the necessary reports for an account at once?
