Find Parameter IDs

Before you add parameters to a donation form URL, find the IDs for the parameters you want to use and make note of them.

Tip: To save time and reduce errors, use the URL parameter builder to assemble a valid URL. This ensures the parameters are combined correctly so you don't have to manage the URL formatting rules manually.

  1. From Online Giving, Donation forms, select a form.

  2. Under Publish select URL parameters.

  3. Select Build hyperlink with parameters.

  4. For each parameter you want to manually add to a donation form's URL, select it under Designation, Campaign, Appeal, or Package . Make note of each ID number.

    Warning: When you add a package to a URL, also add the associated appeal to the URL or add the appeal in the donation form. Otherwise, when you approve a batch you will have to fix the batch exceptions.

  5. Make note of each ID number.
