Each of these values is informed by the UTM's (Urchin Tracking Method) associated with the lead. These can be found in the "UTM Values" section on the contact record as shown below.
Source Channel and Lead source will always show a lead's most recent attribution with us. As you see above, We keep the Last and first UTM values. The values in the Last column will always show the most recent information on a lead. the first values are static and will only show the first touch details for a lead. The field "Last UTM Source" will always show the most granular detail about a lead attribution and should be viewed in combination with Source Channel and Lead Source.
When utilizing UTM values in marketing campaigns, please refer to the standard values we accept for Source and Medium below. Both UTM Content and Term can be free text. Please submit a help ticket if you need a value you do not see listed.
