FAQs + Tips and Tricks

Matching the Conversions report from Pardot

If you want to get the same numbers as the "Conversions" report in Pardot, pull in the "Prospects" report and filter on the last_activity_date field to remove any null values. To do this, use the Filter transform and select the last_activity_date column and "is not blank" as the criteria.
