In order to import your goals and transactions from Google Analytics into AdWords Conversion Tracking, your Analytics account must be linked to your AdWords account. Once the two are linked, please make sure that you've also opted into Data Sharing from your Analytics account. The instructions below explain how to do this:
- Sign into your Google Analytics account.
- Click "Edit Account and Data Sharing Settings."
- Make sure you've selected at least the "With other Google products only" options under "Share my Google Analytics data..."
- Click "Save Changes" to finish.
- Navigate to the Conversion Tracking page from within your AdWords account. The Conversion Tracking page will show a message alerting you that your goals and transactions are ready to be linked. Please note that it may take up to two weeks for your Analytics data to be imported into AdWords.
- Click "Import from Google Analytics" from the Conversion Tracking table.
- Select the goals or transactions you want from the list. Each listed item will have an editable field for the action name, a clickable menu that allows you to choose the tracking purpose, the Analytics profile name, the type of action (goal or transaction), and the name of the action as it appears in Google Analytics. Edit the action name and tracking purpose here so that you can identify the goals once they show up in your AdWords conversion reports.
- Select "Import" from the bottom of the table to finish.
