Paramter Groupings AKA Logic based parameters
Parameter Groupings, formerly known as Logic-based parameters, allow you to create parent-child relationships between different parameters.
For example: If you create the following logic based parameter:
Medium: Social
Source: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter
The dropdown will only show Facebook, Instagram and Twitter as Sources when the Medium ‘Social’ is selected. In other words, when you are building a link, values allowed to a specific parent are filtered.
How to make logic based parameters?
- Open you Parameters dashboard
- Add a parent parameter (like Medium: Social)
- Add multiple child parameters (like Source: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter)
- Next, mouse over the child parameter and click the grouping icon which would also highlight the parameter
- Now that both parameters are highlighted, click again on the grouping icon on the parent parameter to connect child to parent
- Now that parent and child parameter are connected, repeat the same process to connect another parent to child parameter
- Click on the "finish grouping" button to save your logic-based parameter
How to use logic based parameters?
To build a link using Templates:
- Open the modal in the web app or extension,
- Select the template, which will insert the medium,
- Select a parent (like Medium), which should then display the right child value in the dropdown depending on how you setup your logic based (like Source: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter).
