To set campaign conversion goals in Google Ads with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Ads account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to set which conversion goals a campaign optimizes for, which decides what Smart Bidding counts as success. A goal marked biddable is primary. A goal that is not biddable is secondary and only observed.

Which Tools Do the Work

Each campaign can bid on some conversion goals and only watch others. Claude reads the setup, then changes it:

list_conversion_goals only reads your account. update_campaign_conversion_goal and update_conversion_action change it.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
list_conversion_goalsShows what each campaign bids on
update_campaign_conversion_goalWrites the goal setting
update_conversion_actionFixes a mislabelled conversion action

Be careful about what you make primary. If a low-value action, such as a page view, is biddable, Smart Bidding chases it. Keep primary goals to the actions that matter for revenue, and leave others as secondary.

How to Set Campaign Conversion Goals in Google Ads With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to set campaign conversion goals. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.

1

Connect Google Ads to PaidSync.ai

Register at paidsync.ai and connect Google Ads with Google's own sign-in screen. It needs no developer token and no Google Cloud project. Pick the Google login that manages the account you will set campaign conversion goals in.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Install PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Google Ads accounts" and select the account to set campaign conversion goals in.

3

Read the goals

Ask for the conversion goals for the campaign and see which are biddable.

4

Decide primary and secondary

Choose the categories that should be primary, and the ones to observe only.

5

Apply

Ask it to run update_campaign_conversion_goal for each change. Approve the previews and list the goals again.

How to Check the Result

List the goals again and check the biddable flags. Watch the conversions column, because a change in goals changes what is counted.

Use these two prompts to set campaign conversion goals, in this order.

"List the conversion goals for my campaign Lead Gen Search and show which ones are biddable."
Reads your account and changes nothing.
"Make the Purchase goal biddable and the Page View goal secondary on my campaign Online Store."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I set campaign conversion goals in Google Ads?

In Google Ads, open the campaign settings, go to goals and choose which conversion goals to use. With PaidSync.ai, ask Claude or ChatGPT to set them, and it previews the change first.

What is the difference between primary and secondary?

A primary goal is biddable, so bidding optimizes for it. A secondary goal is observed only and is not used for bidding.

Can ChatGPT set campaign conversion goals in Google Ads?

Yes. PaidSync.ai connects Google Ads to ChatGPT and to Claude, and the same tools run in both, so you can ask it to set campaign conversion goals the same way you would in Claude.

What do I need before I set campaign conversion goals?

A connected Google Ads account, the campaign, and the goal category and origin to change.

How much does it cost?

PaidSync.ai is free for 15 tasks a month with no card, enough to set campaign conversion goals and see the result. Pro starts at $99 a month. See pricing.
