Bing Account Level Tracking Setup
Bing ads allow you to setup your tracking with a one-time update to their account settings.
Where to update: Under your Settings, click on the Account Settings.
For Wicked Reports, we need the final URL field to have specific text.
The final URL text: utm_source=Bing&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign={Campaign}&utm_content={AdGroup}&utm_term={TargetId}
This will give the ad clicks the correct parameters for Wicked Reports. Remember, all clicks need to hit our landing page with the parameters intact, no redirects.
