Hi Aryeh, Thanks for your response. In my specific case I don't see any value in running the upload click conversions in a test environment. At the moment I am uploading my conversions manually via the Google UI, and if I test an upload via the API and it doesn't work the worst case is that I have to upload some more conversions manually via the API while I make any corrections to the code. Am I required to practice in a test environment before getting my production Developer Token?
Also, if I create a Master account, am I correct in thinking that I can get a Developer Token for that Master account which will then allow me to upload click conversions for any regular account that is linked to the Master account?
