Visits Webpage - Will that trigger if UTMs are in place?

Hello! I have several programs that have trigger campaigns set up based on a visit to a webpage. For example, our blogs. But my social media manager is now using UTMs when she blasts on social channels, and I'm concerned my "visits webpage" campaign won't trigger if the URL string doesn't contain her UTMs?

'Contains "string"' will match both "string" and "string?otherstuff".

You should move the question to Products.  "Community" is for issues with the Marketo Nation website itself -- and yes, this is confusing.

If you're using Visits Web Page ​without constraining on the ​Query String ​(which is where utm_* query params are) then params aren't being considered in your trigger, even now.  You can test it easily.

Thanks Sanford, I'll do that.

If I use the Visited Web Page - Contains [URL], would that work even if UTMs are included on the page they visit, but not in my constraint?

Ex: [url]/?utm_source=marketo

But, my Visited Web Page is just "contains [url]", can I still catch them?
