#### ***Step 2: Fill source info*** * Source name * Description * Domain: starts with ***http\://*** or ***https\://*** if the source type is a website * Icon: an image represents the source * Associate with UTM: If selected, it will automatically sync data from UTM to ATM

#### ***Step 3: Assign event*** * Choose event template. The event templates proposed by CDP 365 are already assigned event attributes and objects. * Assign events for source * Click![](https://826840553-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FbtU4vFUxT5JkWYHePuoX%2Fuploads%2FHuJsWyMXUqWSSxWXc5Y3%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=3b70d8c0-4e98-4b5f-b445-055390690c62)to add new a event to the source * Click ![](https://826840553-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FbtU4vFUxT5JkWYHePuoX%2Fuploads%2FJQZfpgMoTMIvg24CUQus%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=edc5eb6c-abe0-4b9b-8799-ab4bc9f3ce6e) to remove an event/event attribute/object reference * [Choose event attributes and objects](#step-2-assign-event-attributes)
