Track Bing conversions with dynamic URL

Hi everyone!

Thank you in advance, hoping this is a quick answer.

I have a dynamic URL that I need to track conversions on.

When I create my conversion goal and set a final URL as the conversion can I use an asterix?

Example: https://linara.ca/engagement-rings/checkout/*/confirmed

The asterix would represent something like their username.

This is just an example, it's not a cart checkout but figured it would be easier to articulate it that way.

Hi ChrisSimpson3,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us with this inquiry, we are happy to assist.

 

Using the Destination URL option on exact or contains with an asterix as a replacement for another word (a username) will not work. When using Destination URL, you are setting up what you are wanting to track which is important for it to match with what is in the URL. However, if you insert the asterix at the username level this you may be able to track conversionswith no issues.

 

We will recommend using the contains option and use a word that specifically appears on the confirmation/thankyou/checkout/success. Based on the example that you provided it should look like this:

 

Destination URL – contains – checkout

 

I hope this information has been helpful, should you have any questions or concerns, please let me us know as we are happy to assist.

 

Thank you for choosing Bing Ads!
