tracking contact source

[anaseeb]

Hi, 
     I am currently syncing contacts from my website to hubspot using contacts objects. 
Secondly, I have also installed 'tracking code' to different pages against which I get basic number of visitor data info. 

Now I am trying it to connect/work with UTMs, how UTMs can play over here? How can I use hubspot UTM to tracking which contact came from where? Is this possible?

Hi @anaseeb,

This is happening automatically when contacts accept your cookie policy and then submit a form, see here: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/reports/understand-hubspots-traffic-sources-in-the-traffic-analytics-t...

Best regards!

@karstenkoehler can you please help me understand the process? 
e.g. I am create contact in hubspot via Contacts API .

@anaseeb I am not aware of any ways to set this via the contacts API. As far as I know, you would have to use the forms API: https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/reference/api/marketing/forms/v3-legacy#submit-data-to-a-form-su...
