Step 6: [Optional] Add in Customization by Source & Medium

By default, we send all transactions to Smartly.

If you'd like to only send purchase events when there is a specific source & medium value associated with those orders, you can add in a customization in your Advanced Options.

The Source Name is the "utm_source" value in the URL of the customer's browsing session. The Medium Name is the "utm_medium value in the URL of the customer's browsing session. [Learn more]

If you configure the above customization & choose to end recurring orders to Smartly. Only recurring orders with the associated source/medium UTM parameters will be sent.

Step 7: Go Live

Select Go Live on the Overview Page to launch your new Smartly Destination.
