When you create appointments, events, or other items in our scheduling app, you can pre-populate form fields by passing information through the URL. Here’s an example:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example?firstname=Peter&lastname=Zwega
Adding parameters to your meeting registration form URL makes it faster for attendees to fill out and submit their details. By prefilling data like names, emails, and custom field values, attendees will spend less time registering and can join your meeting more quickly.
How to Add Parameters to a Meeting Link
Start with your basic meetergo meeting link (example:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example
)Add a question mark (?) at the end of the meeting name/path (example:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example?
)After the question mark, add the name of the parameter, an equals sign, and the value to prefill (example:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example?firstname=Claudio
). Later in this article, you can find details on how to obtain the field names to use in the URL parameter.For additional prefill parameters, use an ampersand (&) before the next parameter (example:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example?firstname=Claudio&[email protected]
)Check that your parameters are added correctly before sharing your link!
Adding parameters to your meetergo meeting link allows you to prefill attendee information like names, emails, and custom fields to save time at the start of a meeting.
Finding Field Names for URL Parameters
When adding URL parameters to prefill meeting form values, you'll need to know the correct field names to use.
Default Fields
For default registration fields, you can use these parameter names:
firstname
lastname
fullname
(when using a single name field)email
phone
Custom Fields
For any custom registration fields you have created, you can prefill them using the Data Field ID.
To find the ID:
Log in to meetergo and go to your data field settings.
Locate your custom field and click on "Edit".
Click on "More Options"
Copy the value in the ID Field.
For example, if you have a custom field with an ID of "myfield", you would add it as a parameter like:
https://my.meetergo.com/richard/example?myfield=value
If you are using a dropdown, radio or similar field with predefined options, you have to use the exact option value. That way, all fields are able to be prefilled.
Use cases
Adding parameters for prefilling attendee data makes it easier and faster for invitees to complete meeting registration.
This convenience and simplified experience typically increases the likelihood an invitee will register for the meeting rather than abandon sign-up partway through. As such, using prefilled parameters can improve booking and registration conversion rates for your meetings.
Higher registrations from email campaigns or client mailings when embedded info prefills forms
Smoother sign-up for VIP guests so meetings appear professional
Easily use it in combination with other tools such as CRMs (Hubspot)
Integrate in your app to prefill user's information for support calls
