Passing User Information via URL Parameters
Drimify experiences now support pre-filling user information directly through the URL using query string parameters. This allows for a more personalised experience and streamlines data collection.
✅ Supported URL Parameters
You can pass the following optional variables in the URL:
Parameter | Description | Example Value |
---|---|---|
| First name | John or base64 encoded ( |
| Last name | Last name or base64 encoded ( |
| Email address | Plain or base64 encoded ( |
🔗 Example URLs
Base64 encoded values:
https://apps.drimify.com/your-experience-id/?session_uid=ABC123&fname=Sm9obg==&lname=RG9l&email=am9obi5kb2VAZXhhbXBsZS5jb20=
Plain text values:
https://apps.drimify.com/your-experience-id/?session_uid=ABC123&fname=John&lname=Doe&email=john.doe@example.com
🔒 Encoding & Decoding Logic
- You may pass the values either as plain text or as Base64-encoded strings.
- Drimify will automatically detect Base64-encoded values and decode them.
- Whether Base64-encoded or plain, all values are also raw URL decoded on our side to ensure special characters like spaces (
%20
),@
, or=
are properly interpreted.
⚠️ Important for Integrators
Please ensure:
- If you send plain text, it must be URL-encoded before being added to the URL.
- If you send Base64, you must:
- First URL-encode the original value (e.g., John Doe → John%20Doe)
- Then Base64 encode that result (John%20Doe → Sm9obiUyMERvZQ==)
- Pass it in the query string
- When passing values via URL parameters, base64-encoded strings must include proper padding (
=
). Without correct padding, the system may not decode the value correctly, and it will be treated as plain text.
Why?
This ensures special characters are preserved correctly and decoded properly in all cases.
✉️ Email Validation
For security and data integrity:
- The
email
parameter will only be used if it passes standard email format validation. - If the value does not match a valid format, it will be skipped and not stored.
💡 Use Cases
- Just like we support
session_uid
to identify a user session, we now supportfname
,lname
, andemail
to pre-fill user data and avoid displaying a data collection form. - This is ideal when launching experiences from email campaigns or CRM tools, where the participant's information is already known.
- Track individual user sessions with less friction
- Provide a seamless, personalised user experience
