Certain Gradual pages support the use of URL Parameters to trigger sign-up modals and pass custom information into those forms.

The use case for this feature is to be able to ease user sign-up and login and reduce the number of clicks and manual entry in the sign-up process.

For Gradual URLs all parameters are initiated with a ? at the end of the root URL. Parameters may be joined with & .

[email protected] <— This Parameter will automatically add the email address contained within the parameter to available email fields on the page. This includes the standard sign-up/login form as well as the event registration modal.

The [email protected] parameter automatically adds email address to any email address fields on the page.

?autoRSVP=true <— This parameter will automatically launch the event registration modal on event detail pages. This mimics the user having clicked on the "register" button on the page.

The ?autoRsvp=true parameter will launch the registration portal on event pages.

A common example is to promote an event and get users to register without them having to click "register" and then enter an email address. An example url would look like:

https://community.gradual.us/public/events/product-demo-2023-01-31?autoRsvp=true&[email protected]

Another example would be user activation where you have loaded a number of members and want to prompt them to login. Including their email address in the URL will help ensure they use the correct email when logging in.
