Choose the tool that matches the tracking job.

Start with the thing you are trying to measure: traffic arriving from a campaign, or clicks leaving your website for another destination.

Campaign URL builder vs outbound click tracking planner.

Both tools support cleaner GA4 measurement, but they solve different tracking jobs.

Use the Campaign URL Builder when traffic is coming to your site.

Create UTM-tagged links for paid media, email, partner, QR, social, and referral campaigns before visitors arrive.

Use the Outbound Click Tracking planner when visitors are leaving your site.

Document how GA4 should measure booking links, partner referrals, app stores, checkout links, and other external destinations.

Use both when a campaign sends traffic to a page with external conversion paths.

UTMs explain where the visitor came from. Outbound click tracking explains which external destination they chose next.
