Any other source

Any other source is a traffic source.

No credentials: this template sends nothing to the source.

Each token is a query parameter on the campaign URL; the source replaces its macro with the value when it sends the visitor. The columns say which part of the visit it fills and which report column (v1 to v20) it lands in.

ParameterMacroFillsReport column
utm_sourcenone: your link carries itSitev1 (Source)
utm_mediumnone: your link carries itCustom valuev2 (Medium)
utm_campaignnone: your link carries itSource campaignv3 (Campaign)
utm_contentnone: your link carries itCreativev4 (Content)
utm_termnone: your link carries itKeywordv5 (Term)

The campaign URL you paste into the source is the tracking domain, the campaign’s key and the tokens the source fills, in this order (the domain below is an example, and {url_key} stands for the campaign’s own key):

https://trk.example.com/{url_key}

Cost models, the first the default: none (no cost), cpc (cost per click), cpm (cost per thousand visits), cpa (cost per conversion), revshare (revenue share).

This template sends no conversions to the source.

  • Retries: up to 15 attempts, waiting from 30s and doubling up to 6h, longer when the source’s Retry-After asks, and never past the conversion’s age limit.

This page describes version 1 of the Any other source template, the latest published. The version your connection runs is the one your administrators approved, and the portal shows it.
