Want Google Analytics UTM Option for Email Campaigns applied automatically

Its silly to have to tag every single link manually with utm codes for Google Analytics.  Can you just create a setting either at the account level or the campaign level to turn on GA utm code tagging?  Lots of other email software tools have this.  I am very surprised that Constant Contact does not.  Thanks.

We're updating the status of this idea to more accurately reflect its current status with our engineering team, and also made slight changes to the subject line in order for it to be more easily found. We can't guarantee a commitment to deliver on this feature request, but it should indicate some awareness that we have heard your feedback and could be taken under consideration for a future release.

It would be great if Constant Contact could either add the capability to automatically add UTM parameters to email links so that users don't have to manually add UTM codes to all URLs or at a minimum Constant Contact could integrate Google Analytics into user accounts so that data from campaigns is can be more easily tracked. Most other email platforms have at least one of these options to make it easier to track campaign performance all in one place.

I would also like for this feature to be added. It was a default feature on my old ESP, and it was so easy to track our campaigns. Sometimes it becomes time consuming to change all of the UTM links in my e-mails. When I sent my first campaign, however, I did notice a record in my GA4 analytics that was labeled as Constant Contact. When I sent my first campaign I wasn't aware that I had to add UTM parameters to my links. Glad I did my research before the future sends.

I wasn't aware that UTMs weren't automatically added until I saw this request!  It was also a default feature of my old ESP and seems like a no-brainer to have.
