Hello,

My team and I are facing challenges integrating Google Ads data into Zoho 
CRM. We're using a standard Joomla registration form and aiming to evaluate 
our ROI by comparing ad investment with offline customer sales. The Zoho 
instructions for integration have been helpful, except for a disconnect 
we're experiencing on step 3. Zoho support hasn't been able to provide a 
clear solution, stating their limited involvement with third-party matters. 
The specific issue lies with the line "$gclid": 
"CMPjuu-Xx78CFRSTjgodPHsA3Q," as our developer informs us that the $GCLID 
needs to be unique to each ad click.

Considering the simplicity of the problem, I would greatly appreciate any 
assistance or explanation from the community to help resolve this matter.

*Note:* Our sales predominantly occur offline.

*These are the instructions from zoho support below*

To facilitate webform tracking using third-party web forms, please follow 
the steps outlined below:


   1. Add the following hidden field code in your web form's code:
   <input type='hidden' id="zc_gad" name="zc_gad" value=""/>
   2. Include the following tracking code in all your website's web pages, 
   just before the </body> tag:
   <script type="text/javascript" 
   src='https://crm.zoho.com/crm/javascript/zcga.js'></script>
   3. Modify your existing API script by including the "GCLID" variable as 
   shown in the sample below to transfer the tracking details:
   {
         "data": [
            {
               "Company": "Zylker",
               "Last_Name": "Daly",
               "First_Name": "Paul",
               "Email": "p.d...@zylker.com",
               "State": "Texas",
               "$gclid": "CMPjuu-Xx78CFRSTjgodPHsA3Q"
            }
         ]
      }

The tracking code "zcga.js" fetches the GCLID from the browser's cookies 
and sends it to the third party's database. To make this information 
available in Zoho CRM, it needs to be pushed via API. Include the GCLID 
variable in addition to the existing variables, allowing the GCLID to be 
pushed to Zoho CRM.

*For more details, please refer to the Zoho CRM help article at*

Thank you for your assistance and any insights you can provide to resolve 
this issue promptly.

Best regards,

Kaido Whims
