Create a conversion action for a Google Ads enhanced conversion for leads
Google Ads accounts only
You can create conversion actions for Google Ads enhanced conversions for leads to be tracked for individual Google Ads accounts, not conversions tracked at a manager account level.
Once you create the conversion action and implement a conversion tracking tag, you can upload the offline conversion data that your organization captures and attribute it to the conversion action.
