Field mappings

Use the mappings in the tables to map an UploadCallConversionsRequest in the Google Ads API to its IngestEventsRequest equivalent in the Data Manager API.

Authentication

The Data Manager API requires credentials with a different scope than the Google Ads API. Follow the steps in Set up API access to generate new credentials that include the Data Manager API scope.

Request fields

UploadCallConversionsRequest (Google Ads API) IngestEventsRequest (Data Manager API) Notes
  • customer_id
  • login-customer-id request header
  • linked-customer-id request header
  • conversion_action
destinations See Customer and conversion action fields.
No equivalent consent Optional. Default consent settings for all events in the request. Unlike the Google Ads API, which only supports setting consent on individual conversions, the Data Manager API lets you set consent once for the entire request. To override the default for an individual event, set the consent field of the Event.
No equivalent encoding Required: Set to the Encoding (HEX or BASE64) used for UserIdentifier values.
partial_failure No equivalent The Data Manager API uses a fast-fail error model. If any field of an IngestEventsRequest fails validation, the Data Manager API rejects the entire request. If the request succeeds, use diagnostics to retrieve errors and warnings for individual events.
validate_only validate_only
conversions events The list of conversions or events. See Conversion fields for details.

Customer and conversion action fields

In the Google Ads API, you set the login-customer-id and linked-customer-id request headers for different authentication scenarios.

In the Data Manager API, you specify login and linked customer information using fields of a Destination instead of request headers. Check out Configure destinations for more information about destinations.

Here's how to map the Google Ads API fields for a single conversion_action to the equivalent fields in a Destination:

Google Ads API Destination (Data Manager API) Notes
customer_id of the request operating_account Set the account_id to the customer ID of the Google Ads conversion account. Set the account_type of the operating_account to GOOGLE_ADS.
developer-token request header No equivalent The Data Manager API doesn't use developer tokens. The Google Ads API also no longer requires them.
login-customer-id request header login_account Set the account_id to the customer ID of the login account. Set account_type to GOOGLE_ADS if the login account is a Google Ads account, or DATA_PARTNER if the login account is a data partner account.
linked-customer-id request header linked_account Only applies if you're a data partner sending data through a partner link. If the partner link is with a parent manager account of the operating_account, set the account_id to the customer ID of the Google Ads account that has the partner link and set account_type to GOOGLE_ADS. If the partner link is directly with the operating_account, don't set the linked_account field. See Data partner scenarios.
conversion_action of a CallConversion product_destination_id Set to the numeric ID of the UPLOAD_CALLS conversion action. Don't use the resource name of the ConversionAction.
No equivalent reference A user-defined identifier for the Destination. Set this field if you're sending events to multiple destinations.

Conversion fields

CallConversion (Google Ads API) Event (Data Manager API) Notes
caller_id user_data.user_identifiers[].phone_number Required. Format the phone number in E.164 format, hash it using SHA-256, encode the hash using hex or Base64 encoding, and set the phone_number field of a UserIdentifier in the UserData object. Also set encoding on the IngestEventsRequest.
call_start_date_time call_info.start_timestamp Required. Set start_timestamp on the CallInfo object.
See Timestamp format for details.
consent consent Both APIs use a similar Consent object (ad_user_data, ad_personalization). For the Data Manager API, you can also set consent for all events in a request by setting the request-level consent field.
conversion_action destination_references Set product_destination_id on the destination. If sending events to multiple destinations, set destination_references to the corresponding reference of the destination.
conversion_date_time event_timestamp Required. Must not be earlier than call_info.start_timestamp.
See Timestamp format for details.
conversion_value conversion_value
currency_code currency
custom_variables custom_variables See Custom variable fields for details.
No equivalent event_source Optional. Set to a valid EventSource enum value.

Custom variable fields

CustomVariable (Google Ads API) CustomVariable (Data Manager API) Notes
No equivalent destination_references If sending events to multiple destinations, use this field to indicate which destinations should receive a specific custom variable.
conversion_custom_variable variable Set to the name of the variable instead of a resource name.
value value

Response fields

UploadCallConversionsResponse (Google Ads API) IngestEventsResponse (Data Manager API) Notes
partial_failure_error No equivalent The Data Manager API uses a fast-fail error model. If any field of an IngestEventsRequest fails validation, the Data Manager API rejects the entire request.
request-id response header request_id The request ID is returned as a response field in the Data Manager API instead of as a response header.
results No equivalent The Data Manager API processes events asynchronously. Check the processing results using diagnostics.
