Hi All,

Example Url used in fb ad : https://info.example.com/test.html?utm_term=test&utm_content=test&utm_source=fb&utm_medium=cpm&utm_campaign=test

Can you show the full, actual URL, copied-and-pasted from the ad itself?

Thanks. So I do see Munchkin logging the whole query string:

 

 

I just filled out the form as teknkl+test0001@email.invalid. Can you check the last few Visit Web Page activities for that lead?

This might not be the issue, but in the past we had found lots of Facebook paid ad spend coming through as referrals simply as "m.facebook.com" and similar - they didn't preserve the URL parameters.
