Campaign Parameters

What characters can be used for campaign parameters?


It is strongly recommended to use the following characters.

  • Uppercase and lowercase letters
  • Numbers
  • _ and -

For custom channels, it is strongly recommended to use the following characters.

  • Lowercase letters
  • Numbers
  • _


Are there length limitations for campaign parameters?


Yes, 256 characters per campaign parameter.



The campaign parameter is different from what I created.

  • Any / in channel names are replaced by _ (e.g. My/ChannelMy_Channel)
  • Any # in the campaign parameter values are replaced by _. (e.g. ad_group=#MyGroupad_group=_MyGroup)


Why do I see a $$default$$ channel in my reports?


Airbridge tracking links follows a https://abr.ge/@{app_name}/{channel}?{campaign_parameter} format. If channel is empty when the tracking link is clicked, $$default$$ is shown as its value.

e.g. Campaign parameter data collected when clicking on https://abr.ge/@airbridge_demo?campaign=abc.

  • channel: $$default$$
  • campaign: abc


Is it possible to not use a tracking link and use UTM paramters for attribution?
