Hi there!

I've come across an opinion that using utm tags while creating Google Analytics links (source, medium,campaign) for different campaigns may result in duplicate content.

Meaning - if Google indexes a page through a link with different tags,
it will cause duplicate content to appear.

I have no evidence to support it. Perhaps you could help me? What are
your opinions on this subject?

Thanks in advance,

Maciek

What duplicate content would be generated?

You have two different URLs (one without utm tags and one with utm tags) and the same content. So I assume Google might think that you have the same content under different urls.
