Hi, I am relatively new to running campaigns on the microsoft network and struggling a bit with getting the UET tag to report conversion accurately. Is there a simpler way to set this up without messing up the site headers?

Try using Google Tag Manager to set up the UET tag. It’s much easier to manage without editing your site headers every time.

Great advice, indeed, GTM can greatly simplify the process of tagging. However, do not forget to check the UET tag after you have set it up.

First check if the conversion goal is set up properly in Microsoft Ads. Sometimes the tag is fine but the goal settings are causing the issue.

Use GTM and the UET Tag Helper to debug it. Most tracking issues come from the wrong trigger or a conversion goal that doesnt match the event.
