Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 14, 20231 yr I'm using Zapier to create a form and then save it in a custom table here. I cannot figure out how to pass my current forum user to zapier other than pass the member id in the url. I've tried https://chyll.zapier.app/{variable} but that does not work.
September 14, 20231 yr Solution Can you clarify what you're exactly trying to do? Are you using a Zapier Interface to generate the form and then you've just linked it in your navbar and you want to make the link dynamic to include the member_id ? That's probably a bad approach, and if there are critical data or if you have to guarantee that the member who's submitting the form is really the member who's ID was submitted, you'll need a better approach, because literally anybody could open the URL and just adjust the variable. That said, back to your question:) You'll either need a custom application with a custom navbar extension to build the dynamic link, or you could use JavaScript to customize the target link and attach the currently logged in member_id

Exactly. Zapier does not know the member_id. I suppose I can make a page with a php block and redirect that way. I knew about the security issue; I'm just trying to get things working to attract more qualified help. Thanks for the assistance!
