Use UTM parameters with your HeySummit event

Track which campaigns and links bring attendees to your event registration.

Written by Benjamin Dell

UTM parameters are labels added to a link so you can identify which campaign, channel, or source brought someone to your event.


Add UTM parameters to an event link

HeySummit records utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign. Add the first parameter after a ?, then join additional parameters with &.


Example: https://your-event-domain.com/?utm_source=linkedin&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=launch


Use those exact parameter names. Replace the example values with short labels that make sense in your reporting.


When attribution is saved

HeySummit carries the UTM values into registration and saves them against the attendee when attribution is first recorded. It does not overwrite an attendee's existing UTM values later in the same event.


View or export UTM data

  • Go to Reports > Attendees and export the attendee list to see utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign for individual attendees.

  • Open the Referral Sources report from attendee reporting to compare UTM sources, media, and campaigns with other attribution sources.


ref is also supported for custom referral labels, but it is separate from the three UTM parameters.
