Embed Form: Send dynamic parameter to external website page

    Asked on June 29, 2024 at 9:30 PM

    Is it possible to use the full code embed using divi builder or even just switching to 'standard editor'?

    We need the ability to send dynamic url parameters (i.e. mywebsite.com?field=DYNAMIC-VALUE) so iframe typically doesn't work.

    No worries, Rahul,

    With some digging, I found these answers:

    Both referencing a Wordpress plugin called "Pass URL Parameters to Embedded iFrame". Not helpful outside of Wordpress situations, but definitely solved my current issue. Thanks.

    Hi Jamie,

    Thanks for letting us know that your current expectation has been achieved using the WordPress plugin “Pass URL Parameters to Embedded iFrame”.

    I have found a way to prepopulate dynamic values from Jotform to an external website. Let me walk you through the steps:

    Firstly, create a Prepopulate URL of your external page. Let me show you how:

    1. Get the Unique ID of the form field that you would like a dynamic value to be sent to your website page. Embed Form: Send dynamic parameter to external website page Image 1 Screenshot 50
    2. Now create the Prepopulate URL of your website page. Embed Form: Send dynamic parameter to external website page Image 2 Screenshot 61

    Next step is to use the created Prepopulate URL above as the URL of the Thank you page of your Jotform that you would like to embed on your website. Let me show you how to do it:

    1. In the Form Builder, go to the Settings tab from the top navigation bar.
    2. Select Thank you page from left panel.
    3. Next, select Redirect to an external link after submission.
    4. Enter the Prepopulate URL. That's it.
