Once you've added the LeadJourney tracking script to your website and set up your lead forms with a hidden Click ID field, it's important to confirm that the data is actually being passed into your CRM.

The good news? This verification process is quick and easy.


🧪 Why This Matters

The Click ID (lj_click_id) is the key to connecting website visitors with the ads they clicked on.If your CRM isn't receiving this value, LeadJourney can’t track the full customer journey — and you won’t be able to send accurate conversion data back to ad platforms.


🚀 Step-by-Step: How to Check

Step 1: Generate a Test Lead

Go to your website and submit a lead form as if you were a new user. Make sure the form includes the hidden Click ID field that LeadJourney auto-populates.


Step 2: Go to Your CRM

Log in to your CRM (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, etc.) and locate the test lead you just submitted.


Step 3: Find the Click ID Field

Look for the custom field/property where you're storing the Click ID. This could be named something like:

  • clickid

  • lj_click_id

  • LeadJourney Click ID

You’ll usually find this under the contact or deal details.


Step 4: Confirm the Format

The Click ID should look like a long code in this format:

eff02f7a-bdfc-4b13-92da-dbd3a4743672

If you see a value like this in the field — great! Your setup is working correctly.


❌ Don’t See the Click ID?

Here are a few things to check:

  • ✅ Is the LeadJourney script correctly installed on your website?

  • ✅ Does your form include a hidden input field with the name="lj_click_id" or similar?

  • ✅ Are you passing the hidden field value to your CRM correctly?

  • ✅ Is the custom property in your CRM mapped to receive this field?
