Add URL parameters to Final URLs

Add any URL parameters that determine the content of a page to Final URLs. You can enter static, dynamic, or custom URL parameters to a Final URL. 

Keep the following in mind when adding parameters to a Final URL:

• Make sure the first parameter is preceded by the ? character. 

• Separate the second, third, and any subsequent parameters with &.

• Don't include spaces in or between parameters.

• Don't use any of the reserved parameter names.

It's recommended that you add parameters that your site uses for tracking purposes to a Final URL suffix, but you can add them to a Final URL if they're preceded by {ignore}. Parameters used by tracking services should always be added to a tracking template.

Example 

Final URL: https://example.com?product=1234
Tracking template: https://tracker.com/redirect={escapedlpurl}
Final URL suffix: channel=search

What happens:

• With parallel tracking: when someone clicks on your ad, he or she will be directed to https://example.com/?product=1234&channel=search while the tracking is processed in background.
• With traditional sequential tracking: When someone clicks on this ad, he or she will first be directed to https://tracker.com/redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2F%3Fproduct%3D1234%26channel%3Dsearch before landing on https://example.com/?product=1234&channel=search.
