    Hi Partner,

    Currently with Dynamics Marketing scripts, we could only track links in marketing email, while marketing page and marketing form only support visits/submissions interactions tracking.

    You can find all supported interaction types of different entities which have insights service from the article below:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/marketing/insights

    If you would like to track links in marketing page, you could integrate your marketing form with 3rd party analytic service such as Google Analytics. (Some user in community had raised similar requirement, and he took GA as solution)

    e.g:

    We could append UTM parameters to URL of links in marketing page, then GA will track how many times a link is clicked.

    More steps is required to collect who click links, because we need to know page visitors' identity.

    A possible solution would be below:

    To prefill landing page form, we could only use portal-hosted marketing page.

    Once form fields have been populated, we can execute custom javascript to query user data from populated fields, then append these data to URL of links dynamically.

    If our landing page is hosted in external website, then the only workaround is to add {{contact.firstname}} and {{contact.lastname}} to link to landing page as parameters in marketing email by dynamic expression,

    then query parameters from browser URL by custom javascript and append them to links in landing page.

    Please take articles below as reference for how to use UTM code in your website:
