Field Type URL vs String

Hi There,

We have a third party adding leads to Marketo including a field called "Source URL". The third party identifies that field as a string. Is there a reason I wouldn't be able to map it to a field in Marketo with type URL? 

 

Thanks!

Denise

The Marketo URL datatype, despite the name, is not suitable for full URLs. It’s for domains. You should use the Text type in Marketo.
