Bookings
Pre-fill fields/questions
You can pre-fill all the fields/questions on the booking form by using their corresponding identifiers that you can see under Advanced -> Booking Questions.
e.g. for the following field(shown in screenshot), the field would show up as Agree with your rules and its identifier is agreed. So, we would use
agreed as query param name to prefill the field.
This can include the user’s name and email, notes, guests, event location, Reason for reschedule. You can prefill any field added by you as well.
You can add anywhere in the booking flow before the booking form page or in the booking form page itself. Simply add these in the URL and you’re good to go!
Pre-filling booking fields can save a lot of time and speed up processes with filling out these forms, and assist with a smooth integration with your existing website or app.
