What URL tag does AdWords add to the destination URL using autotagging?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

adid=<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

utm=<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

gclid=<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

urlid=<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t see the gclid<\/strong> parameter appended to your URLs after the page is fully loaded, then it\u2019s likely that your website isn\u2019t configured to handle query parameters in a way that lets auto-tagging work.

 <\/p>\n

Use the\u00a0Chrome Developer Tools\u00a0and follow the instructions here to check if auto-tagging works on your site before setting it up.<\/p>\n

If you don’t see the gclid parameter appended to your URLs after the page is fully loaded, then it’s likely that your website isn’t configured to handle query parameters in a way that lets auto-tagging work.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open a new tab in Chrome. Open the Chrome menu, then click\u00a0Tools<\/strong>\u00a0>\u00a0Developer Tools<\/strong>\u00a0to open the\u00a0Chrome Developer Tools. Click the\u00a0Network<\/strong>\u00a0tab. This pane shows the network (HTTP) requests for the page being loaded and must be opened\u00a0before<\/em>\u00a0the page is loaded.<\/li>\n
  2. Copy your AdWords final URL. Paste it into the Chrome address bar, but don’t load the page yet. In the address bar, append a test AdWords auto-tagging query parameter, like\u00a0gclid=TeSter-123<\/code>. This makes the full URL:\u00a0http:\/\/www.example.com\/?gclid=TeSter-123<\/strong><\/code>.\n
    \n

    If your final URL already contains a question mark (?) followed by a query parameter, prefix the\u00a0gclid parameter with a ‘&’ symbol. For example:\u00a0http:\/\/www.example.com\/?parameter=1<\/code>&gclid=TeSter-123<\/code><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    If your final URL contains a hash ‘#’ symbol, append the gclid parameter before the hash. For example:\u00a0http:\/\/www.example.com\/?parameter=1&gclid=TeSter-123#bookmark<\/strong><\/code>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n

  3. Load the URL and watch the network requests load.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Refer to the\u00a0Troubleshooting<\/em>\u00a0section below to help find a solution.<\/p>\n
