There are numerous use case scenarios where you may need to open a webpage or screen pop-up URL with specific parameters for a user. To achieve this, you can add custom parameters to the users' settings and utilize them as variables in the Custom webpages or Screen pop-up URLs.
To add a custom parameter to the user’s settings, you can employ the updateUser API method by passing the custom parameters within the custom object.
via Admin portal
Navigate to the user’s menu → More → Custom variables.
Add variable by specifying its key and value, then click Save changes.
via API
{
"method": "updateUser",
"params": {
"id": "17097397378921051839",
"orgid": "17068724888871308748",
"custom": {
"id": "1234-5678-9012",
"key": "qwerwterer234346467"
}
}
}Subsequently, you can utilize these custom user parameters in the Custom webpages or Screen pop-up URLs as follows:
https://example.com?id=$id$&key=$key$
This will open the URL with substituted values:
https://example.com?id=1234-5678-9012&key=qwerwterer234346467
