Sign-up URL Parameters
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 &
.
Parameters
?email=example@gradual.com
<— 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.
?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.
Examples
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=example@gradual.com
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.
