I’m wondering if anyone has any guidance on how I could potentially capture the URL parameter someone signs up with and stores it in the Noloco tables?

Hi @cloblue,

If I understand correctly, you’re referring to the invitation link. The URL structure is _[yourappname.noloco.co/join?invitationToken=invitationtoken](http://yourappname.noloco.co/join?invitationToken=invitationtoken)_. You can get the invitation token from the Noloco user table.

Is this what you’re looking for?

No sorry - I have affiliate tracking software and it attaches a ?ref=name to the end of my URL to track referrals.

I have google tag manager capturing that ?ref=name and storing it through cookies. Although, I’m wondering if there’s a way to get that URL parameter and store it in the Noloco table against the user signing up?

Hopefully this makes sense. It’s likely not feasible but I wanted to check.

I’m pretty sure you could do this with some custom code somehow. Noloco has an event that is fired when the user logs in, so you can use that as your trigger, then you’d hit the Noloco API to actually update the user. Requires a bit of specialist knowledge, but if it’s critical and you’re happy to use a freelancer, then @Ambroise could help I’m sure 🙂

Thanks @lukebranford for the shout-out 🙂

Indeed, it’s likely feasible, technically speaking.  
I’m pretty sure it is, even.

@cloblue PM me if you’d like to talk more about it! 🙂
