1. Install Google Analytics on the Typeform
2. Create a goal based on the "On Submit" Event on Typeform
3. Connect Analytics Goals To Google Ads
To actually pass in the Gclid, you would need to use hidden fields on your form. Then, I would follow the steps below to pass in data if you happen to have the form embedded on your site.

Does that help a bit?

I understand that the Analytics option can be a good one for creating conversions for “On Submit”.
But if the form is not embedded in my site I understand that there is no way to collect the Gclid, right?
Thank you in advance for your time,

Hi
Thank for your reply. No that is exactly what I want to do but I do not know how to do. To pass the Gclid through the ad into a hidden field.
My form has already a hidden field called gclid, and the Url in my ad has the Gclid
Could you explain clearly how to accomplish on typeform what/ how to pass the GCLID into the Hidden field AND also how to modifify (if needed) the exported code ?
*i’m using the new builder with Professional PLan
But I keep having that as a result? See attach
Hi
Hi
SO on GA, i’m not able to record the the google source of the goals accomplished
Hi
For example, when someone clicks on the ad, the URL should look something like this:
www.hello.typeform.com/to/sdfjdfd?utm_source=ad&utm_medium=somethingelsehere
As for passing the data from Typeform into Shopify, you could first setup a redirect URL to pass data out of the form similar to this setup.
The next step would be allowing the pages on your Shopify site to accept the data, which would include custom coding, depending on how you have your Shopify site built and the cart you’re using. There’s a thread about this here, and the first thing to figure out would be where you’re sending your respondent after they fill out the form.
Maybe my question was confusing …
The Gclid is passed from google ads Gclid → landing page → typeform → ?? → GA
But it seems that GA doesn’t receive the Gclid from Typeform?
The objective goal is properly set up and captures the event all the time but it doesn't associate it with the Gclid from Google Ads Campaign.
*Concerning the UTM, I deleted them since I'm using the Gclid.
My understanding.. is that in order to attribute the conversion goals to Google Ads (and the right campaign).. the Gclid needs to be transferred to GA while the event is trigger… but what from this screenshot… I still see only xxxx?
Hey
Update… We’re one step forward...it not seem that it recognize that it’s from Google Ads Source...but it’s doesn’t fit into any campaign ...it created a “No Set” within google ads section of GA (so it’s doesnt send the data back to google ads).. do you know how to fix this?
Hi
Hi
THanks for your feedback!
The problem is not actually with Google Ads itself… more with Google analytics directly who doesn't “know” which GCLID to associate the event to…
The gclid is passed along the URL effectively and even to the next page after redirect… however when Typeform submit the “Task completion” it seem that it doest not include the GCLID itself so that GA couldn’t know from with source/campaign it came from…
Could it be because it’s a popup?
Could it be because the trigger from Typeform is sent before receiving the Gclid?
Or is it because it’s not possible to pass the Gclid ?
this is the Source captured by GA from Typeform Event :
/to/kMYymiXY?typeform-medium=embed-sdk&typeform-embed=popup-blank&typeform-source=podform3d.com&typeform-embed-id=16smv#gclid=xxxxx |
it always has the XXXX instead of the actual number!
Ah! That would be it. Would you mind sending the URL of the embed? I can take a look at the code to show you how to adjust it so the hidden field passes through. You’ll also want to be sure that you’ve published any changes to the form to be sure that the hidden field captures!

Thanks,
If not, our technical support team can look further into the form in your account to see why it’s not passing, and you’ll want to contact them through your account email here.
here’s what I got :
Could you give it a try with this one: https://podform3d.com/pages/foot-pain
I have tried to set up a Landing Page event goal trigger in GA but even there the Gclid is lost along the way… Please help…
