Thank you pages: what is this code in the end ?aliId=6609227

We have different programs running and each one has a thank you page.

When users land on the thank you page, some pages don't have this ID and some do:
?aliId=6609227

Where is that from and why do some pages do not have the end tag: ?aliId=6609227

This may be the issue with lead flow as we are getting one set of numbers in marketo and a larger increase in Google Analytics.

The aliId is, loosely speaking, the form data ID (purposely paraphrasing its underlying function/s).

You should set GA to ignore this query param.

Replace Image Function doesn't work

1.we have 3 landing pages going to the same thank you page, some get the id and some do not.

2. GA: is that why we are getting  higher numbers in GA because of the id? And if we ignore it would that fix the problem?

Is there a difference in the way the user is brought to the Thank You URL?

For example, if you use a custom Forms 2.0 onSuccess function, you can bring someone to pages.examples.com/lp.html but unless you manually include the aliId it won't be there:

form.onSuccess(function(vals,tyURL){
 document.location.href = 'http://pages.example.com/lp.html'; // oops, forgot to get the aliId from the original tyURL
return false;
});

2. GA: is that why we are getting higher numbers in GA because of the id? And if we ignore it would that fix the problem?

Well, I couldn't say without knowing which numbers are higher. But if you don't exclude aliId those will all seem like different pages (just as with any non-excluded query param).
