UTM matching for Shopping campaigns
Currently, SegmentStream does not support automatic UTM matching for Shopping campaigns. This means that you would need to match these types of campaigns manually inside the SegmentStream admin panel.
You can define the domain and UTM parameters for all Shopping campaigns through the Landing page domain for Shopping campaigns and URL parameters for all Shopping campaigns settings, and also define UTM parameters for specific Shopping campaigns by matching between the Campaign ID and URL parameters in the URL parameters for specific Shopping campaigns setting.
For example, if all Shopping campaigns have the following link to the website http://www.site.com/?utm_source=Pinterest&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign={campaignid} and a Shopping campaign with the Campaign ID = 123123123 with the following link to the website: http://www.site.com/?utm_source=Pinterest&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Remarketing&utm_content=Shopping, the mapping should be the following:
123123123 ▸ utm_source=Pinterest&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Remarketing&utm_content=Shopping
This is how it might look inside the admin panel:
