The Partner Tracking Template is where you can add global query string parameters to partner tracking links. If a click comes from a partner's tracking link, the parameters you establish in the template will be applied.

Refer to the Query string parameters section below for help.
This is where you can define query string parameters for all tracking links within your program (formerly campaign). These will be applied to links from all of your media sources and partners. These are appended in addition to any query string parameters added via the Partner Tracking Template if the link is a partner tracking link.

This is a good place to add UTM Parameters to all of your tracking links for a program. Refer to the Query string parameters reference below for help.
Parameters with curly brackets ({}) are dynamic query strings that will automatically populate with a value when the link is clicked
Hardcoded values are supported—simply add a value without curly brackets ({}), and it will always be passed on a click.
Custom values are supported, however we recommend contacting support to discuss how use them.
Use underscores to add multiple parameters within a single query string.
