Sync UTM Parameters to Google Ads — Automatically

Connect UTM Mind to your Google Ads account and push UTM tracking templates to campaigns, ad groups, and individual ads — with ValueTrack macro support and live preview before you publish.

What is Google Ads?

Google Ads is the world's largest pay-per-click advertising platform, serving billions of searches daily across Search, Display, Shopping, YouTube, and Performance Max campaigns. Accurate UTM tracking in Google Ads requires setting Tracking Templates at the account, campaign, ad group, or ad level — a process that is error-prone and time-consuming when done manually.

What does UTM Mind do with Google Ads?

UTM Mind connects to your Google Ads account via OAuth and allows you to browse your full account hierarchy — from the top-level account down to individual campaigns, ad groups, and ads. You can select one or multiple campaigns, preview exactly how the final tracking URL will look with ValueTrack macros resolved, and push the UTM tracking template in a single click. UTM Mind also supports bulk sync across your entire account, ensuring every campaign has consistent UTM parameters without manual copy-paste.

Integration Capabilities

Sync Level
Account (all campaigns)CampaignAd GroupAd

UTM Mind supports syncing at every level of the Google Ads hierarchy. You can apply a tracking template to your entire account at once, or drill down to specific campaigns, ad groups, or individual ads. Multi-select and select-all are supported for bulk operations.

Macro Support
{lpurl}{campaignid}{adgroupid}{creative}{keyword}{matchtype}+7 more

UTM Mind fully supports Google's ValueTrack macro system. When you build a UTM template in UTM Mind, you can insert any ValueTrack parameter as a dynamic variable. UTM Mind wraps the full URL in the required {lpurl}?... format for Google Ads Tracking Templates, ensuring compatibility with all Google Ads campaign types.

Live Preview

Before pushing any changes to Google Ads, UTM Mind shows you a live preview of the final tracking URL with all macros in their raw form (e.g., utm_campaign={campaignid}). You can verify the URL structure is correct before applying it to your campaigns.
