Passing parameters with email redirector

Avatar

Level 3

So I'm doing some email testing passing users off to different surveys with a redirector:

 

My example redirector is here:

 

https://optisightsps.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/optisightsps/ubox/page?mbox=redirector_1&mboxDefault=https://b...

 

This will go via Target and hit the below redirect offer:

and the user will finish here (as per the re-direct in Target):

 

https://boehringeringelheim.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6GtxALf4vwYWKuV?L1=star&L2=placeholder1&Q_P...

 

Notice my ?testParam=test was not passed onto the final destination URL (Above) even when I have the include URL parameters checked in Target, I have also tried my redirector in the below format but still no luck:

 

https://optisightsps.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/optisightsps/ubox/page?mbox=redirector_1&testParam=test&mboxDe...

 

What I want to know is if passing a URL parameter is possible with an email redirector, and if so how. If this is not possible can anyone think of another solution for achieving this?  

 

If this is not possible then it should 100% be a feature request as it makes redirectors pointless.

 

Thanks

Hi @danieli22263765 !

 

You should be using testParam as a query parameter to mboxDefault paramater as below

 

https://optisightsps.tt.omtrdc.net/m2/optisightsps/ubox/page?mbox=redirector_1&mboxDefault=https://b...

 

The above URL is redirecting me to this 

https://boehringeringelheim.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6GtxALf4vwYWKuV?testParam=test

 

Notice the testParam in the redirected URL. 

 

Hope that helps!

Or even just a way of appending the mboxDefault URL to the final re-direct?
