How to mark an event as a conversion:

5. Select EVENTS beneath the chosen property.

6. You can then create events or mark them as a conversion by moving the slider MARK AS CONVERSION to “on.”

Pro Tips:

  • If you are familiar with Google Analytics, there is no longer a “tracking id” instead it’s a “measurement id.
  • If there is not an existing event created, it cannot be marked as a conversion.
  • It can take hours for a new conversion to go live.
  • On desktop when some clicks “call back request” and on mobile when someone selects “click to call” these become conversions.
