Shopping campaigns settings

SegmentStream does not support automatic UTM matching for Shopping campaigns. You will need to match these types of campaigns manually inside the SegmentStream admin panel using the following settings.

URL parameters for all Shopping campaigns

If you use a single UTM tracking template for all Shopping campaigns in your Pinterest account, enter it into this field to ensure proper allocation of cost to sessions in the reports.

URL parameters for specific Shopping campaigns

If specific Shopping campaigns in your Pinterest account use unique UTM tracking templates, enter the respective Campaign ID and URL parameters to ensure that the cost is properly allocated to sessions for those campaigns.

Supported dynamic URL parameters

By default Pinterest allows the use of dynamic URL tagging parameters to track campaigns. SegmentStream supports the following parameters:
NameDescription
{campaignid}Advertising campaign ID.
{campaign_name}Advertising campaign name.
{adgroupid}Ad group ID.
{adgroup_name}Ad group name.
{creative_id}Pin promotion ID.
{adid}Pin promotion ID.
