Appending User Information in Web App URL (Advanced)
When adding a web app to your content library, you'll notice a checkbox setting to "Append user information in URL."
This option allows you to append user info from our platform as part of the iframe query string to render the inserted web app within.
This is a useful way for developers to process any server code that is specific to the user viewing their web app.
Web App User Information Parameters
Here is a list of parameters available when appending to a web app URL:
email - (User's email if it exists)
role - (User's role: 1 = speaker; 2 = audience member; 3 = custom)
firstname - (User's first name)
lastname - (User's last name)
displayname - (Usually it is just concatenated as 'firstname' and 'lastname')
sessionid - (Session ID)
sessiontitle - (Session title)
Sample appended URL:
https://test.com?email=zakon-kulona%40ya.ru&role=1&firstname=Free&lastname=Account&displayname=Free%20Account&sessionid=18&sessiontitle=Testroom
Note: this functionality will only work for users logged in to the Digital Samba platform.
