Conversion details unavailable to merchants for orders that were created via the Checkout API - BUG

Conversion details unavailable to merchants for orders that were created via the Checkout API - BUG

When the Checkout API is used to prepare the checkout, conversion details are not associated with the order.

This causes a number of problems:

- The "Sales by traffic source" report in the Analytics section cannot be used to understand sales per source

- Flow automation that depends on the source does not trigger

- The conversion summary in the order is empty:

This is a huge issue as campaigns are not being attributed correctly. Transactions are being classified as direct traffic which makes knowing if an ad campaign is successful. I see this as a huge issue with Shopify Quickpay.

 

How can I know what advertising is working? What paid ads are working? What are good channels to spend marketing on?

Hello!

We are facing the same issue!
And running into the same problems as .

This is a major concern for us, as in how do properly track the advertising results and spendings?

How can this be fixed?
