Campaign tracking is pivotal; it enables marketers to evaluate the efficacy of various strategies and channels. UTM parameters are particularly essential as they provide granular details about the source, medium, and campaign effectiveness.

Retrieving UTM data from Shopify and storing it in Baserow enables oy to do more with this data. For example you could build a campaign database in Baserow and automatically add campaign revenue to it using this workflow template.
