Dennis Westphal observed a new faster process for importing GA4 conversions into Google Ads.

Here’s a breakdown of the steps:

Step 1: Create a conversion action as usual.

Step 3: Input your website to be scanned.

A webpage interface titled "About your website" invites you to enter a web page URL for measuring GA4 conversions via Google Ads. It features a text box for URL input, along with a "Scan" button and a "Done" button at the bottom, streamlining the import process.

Step 4: Select your tag type: Google Ad tag or GA4.
