Hi I’m getting the following error on 8-9% of my offline conversion runs. 

The imported event can't be recorded because its click occurred before this conversion's click-through window. Make sure you import the most recent data., at conversions[0].gclid

Would appreciate any guidance in how to solve this issue. 

 

Kindly

Hi @Iliana 

Good question.

Can you post screenshots with how your Zap steps are configured?

Can you post a screenshot of the encountered error?

Can you post screenshots with Zap Run DATA that resulted in the error?

We would need to see screenshots with the DATA IN for the GAds step that has a Zap Run error.

Is the timestamp for when Zap step ran before or after this value? (screenshot doesn’t show the Zap step timestamp)

Here is the full view, it looks like the time stamp is before.

If you have a Zapier paid plan, you can try opening a ticket with Zapier Support for them to investigate further.
