Any other source is a traffic source.
How to connect it
Section titled “How to connect it”No credentials: this template sends nothing to the source.
Tracking macros
Section titled “Tracking macros”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.
| Parameter | Macro | Fills | Report column |
|---|---|---|---|
utm_source | none: your link carries it | Site | v1 (Source) |
utm_medium | none: your link carries it | Custom value | v2 (Medium) |
utm_campaign | none: your link carries it | Source campaign | v3 (Campaign) |
utm_content | none: your link carries it | Creative | v4 (Content) |
utm_term | none: your link carries it | Keyword | v5 (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).
