Issue
There are duplicate records that show the same values in each column.
Environment
Connector: Google Ads
Resolution
The _fivetran_id
column identifies unique records.
To see Google values that differ for the same rows, follow the steps below:
- Create a new report.
-
Configure the report to include
[report_type].resource_name
columns.Example: For the campaign report, include the
campaign.resource_name
column.
Cause
The cause of the perceived duplicate is due to a Google Ads feature - Implicit Segmentation. This may produce report rows with the same set of attributes/segments and different (or even the same) metrics.
Based on the fields you have configured, the records appear to be duplicated.
