Per-event tracking settings

Per-event tracking settings

Most events should inherit the organization integrations. Use an event override only when that event needs a different account, pixel, or measurement ID—or should not report to a platform.

Open Marketing tracking #

Path: Event → Settings → Marketing tracking

Marketing tracking is its own tab in the settings sidebar, at the same level as Advanced settings, with a megaphone icon.

[SCREENSHOT: Marketing tracking tab with all five providers set to Use organization default]

Choose a mode for each platform #

Each of the five platforms has its own mode selector.

Mode When to use it
Use organization default (<the current value>) Inherit the value saved under Organization settings → Integrations
Use organization default (none configured yet) Keep inheriting even though the organization has not configured this platform yet
Use parent event setting (<value>) For a stage or child event, inherit the parent event's setting
Use parent event setting (disabled) For a stage or child event, inherit the parent's disabled state
Custom for this event Replace the entire provider configuration for this event
Disabled for this event Do not report this event to this platform

The parent-event options appear instead of the organization options when the event is a stage or child of a parent event that has its own setting.

Prefer inheritance #

Leaving every provider on inherit means organization-level changes apply immediately. You do not need to reopen each event after changing an integration.

Use a complete custom configuration #

Custom for this event replaces the whole provider configuration. You cannot combine part of an organization setting with part of a custom setting.

For example, a custom Google Ads configuration requires both the conversion ID and the conversion label. You cannot inherit the organization's conversion ID and enter only a different label.

Permissions #

Editing tracking settings requires the organization administrator role.

  • Support-level users can open Marketing tracking, but the fields are read-only.
  • Support-level users do not see the Google Ads conversion feed section.
