Introduction
When setting up the Google Conversion Booster in TrackBee, you might encounter the error “Auto Tagging Not Enabled”. This means that Google Auto-Tagging is not enabled in your Google Ads account, which is essential for proper tracking and accurate attribution of your advertising efforts. Enabling Auto-Tagging allows TrackBee to receive detailed data about ad clicks, improving the effectiveness of your campaigns. This guide will help you understand why this error occurs and how to fix it.
