The Google Marketing Data Source allows you to see platform-specific metrics (e.g. Ad Spend) in Converge. To send data from Converge to Google, check out the Google Ads - Remarketing or Google Ads - Conversion tracking destination instead.

​
Set up the Marketing Data Source

Converge will pull in the Conversions, CPA, and ROAS based on the Date of conversion event so these metrics can be straightforwardly compared with Converge numbers and other platforms. Note that Google Ads by default shows the conversions based on the date of click in the Ads Manager instead.
  1. Navigate to the Marketing Sources Tab in your Converge dashboard.
  2. Click on Connect a new ad platform and name your ad platform sync: e.g Google Ads | {Google Ads Account ID}
  3. Select Google Ads from the drop-down list and sign in with your Google Ads Account.
  4. Once the Google account has been linked, you can select your Google Ads Account.
  5. After pressing create your Google Ads metrics will stream into Converge.
