Campaign ID Definition
Campaign ID is a unique identifier assigned to each advertising campaign that enables tracking, attribution, and performance measurement across different marketing channels and platforms. This identifier connects all campaign activities, from impressions to conversions, providing a unified view of campaign effectiveness.

- Campaign ID gets appended to tracking URLs and passed with ad requests.
- All campaign-related data is aggregated using this unique identifier.
- Analytics platforms use Campaign ID to attribute conversions and measure ROI.
Example of Campaign ID
A software company runs a "Spring2024_Trial" campaign with Campaign ID "camp_549821" across Google Ads and Facebook. This ID enables them to track total conversions and compare performance between platforms.
