Question

Submissions not populating

Hi,

Submissions are not populating on the Ad Campaign application. The UTMs are coming over correctly from meta and google, but they are not being recognized as submissions. Can anyone help?

Hello!

Please go through the following steps:

  1. Verify submissions are being created — check whether submission records exist at all. Go to the Submissions section and filter by recent dates. If no records appear, the issue is with the form-to-submission pipeline (form configuration, hidden fields, or required field validation).
  2. Check UTM-to-Campaign matching — for submissions to appear under a specific Ad Campaign, the system must match UTM values to the campaign record. The utm_campaign value passed in the URL must exactly match either the Campaign Name or Campaign ID configured in the Digital Ads application. Any mismatch (even a space or capitalization difference) will prevent linking.
  3. Confirm Lead Sources and Lead Channels lookups — the system uses lookup tables to resolve UTM values. The Lead channels lookup must contain a record with a Channel code matching your utm_medium value (e.g., cpc, paid). The Lead sources lookup must contain a record with a Source code matching your utm_source value (e.g., facebook, google). If these aren't configured, source attribution won't work.
  4. Check the business process — verify that the "Populating Contact with Submitted Form's Data" business process is active. Go to System Designer → Process log and check for any errors related to this process.

Could you please confirm: are submission records being created at all (even without campaign attribution)? 
What exact utm_campaign value is being passed in the URL? What is the corresponding Campaign Name/ID in the Digital Ads application?

The submissions are being created. The ad campaign is listed as "Devoted to Educators" in Creatio:

Alona Dolya,

Thanks for your help. I posted in a separate post the answer to your questions.
