Disable url utm tracking in Eloqua emails

Summary:

We have a situation where we need to include a link in our Eloqua email that directs recipients to a Microsoft Outlook booking page.

The problem is that Eloqua automatically appends tracking parameters (such as UTM tags) to this URL when sending emails, which breaks the booking functionality. We disabled "Enable Eloqua Email Tracking” in email tracking settings, tried adding data-elq-track="off" attribute on the <a> tag.

These measures only prevent click tracking redirects; they do not stop Eloqua from appending tracking parameters to the URL itself. The only workaround we find is to link to Eloqua landing page redirecting to Outlook booking page.
