Storing URL Tracking Parameters
In the event you'd like to store URL tracking parameters (e.g. utm_source, utm_medium, etc) in your form submissions, this can easily be done. Just follow the steps below:
Instructions
- Open up an existing form in Freeform. For the purpose of this example, let's assume it's called
Contact. - Create and add 3 new Hidden fields to your form layout with the handles of:
utm_campaignutm_sourceutm_medium
TIP
The field names/handles do not have to match the query parameter names, but we've done it that way for this example.
- In the regular template where you are loading the form, you'll need to add the values parameter and grab the values from the URL with
craft.app.request.getQueryParam(''):{{ freeform.form("myFormHandle", { fields: { "utm_campaign": { value: craft.app.request.getQueryParam('utm_campaign'), }, "utm_source": { value: craft.app.request.getQueryParam('utm_source'), }, "utm_medium": { value: craft.app.request.getQueryParam('utm_medium'), }, }, }).render() }}1

https://mysite.net/contact?utm_campaign=my_campaign&utm_source=google_jobs_apply&utm_medium=organic
Finished!
