Hey guys,

As I am developing a php/mysql web application for my company to integrate with Infusion to allow automated purchasing, I realize that the products do not have an easy way to add a 'thank you' or 'destination' URL to the product itself, without having to go through the hassle of creating an order form, then adding the product, then setting the destination URL there, then styling the order form(which does not have a very friendly design btw).

I believe the process could be streamlined(in my case, and I am sure that many others have needed a quick and easy way to put up a product link and manage where the purchaser goes after the transaction is complete) by giving users the ability to just define a 'Thank You' or 'Destination' URL right on the product.

Let me know what you think. Thanks for listening

After review of the data that is sent by infusion in the GET (after the URL such as ?name=andy&email=email@yourdomain.com) it does not send back the "SKU" for the product that was purchased, which is what I was basing my process on, since that is the easiest way to tell people using this application to reference the product.

Any way you can get the "SKU" passed through the order forms? I do not see why that would not be a field that is passed through.

Can you let me know if that can be implemented?

Thanks,

There is not a "Thank You Page" field per product because what happens when you purchase more than one product? it just is not needed. the thank you page should be determined by the order page which is how the Infusionsoft order forms handle it.

The SKU does not need to be passed, if you are using the API all you need is the product ID and then you can pull the SKU from that product.

Personally how I would handle this situation, since you stated you are using PHP and MySQL, I would create a table in the database named "responses".

This Table would contain the columns "ID", "ProductId" and "ProductResponse". When a purchase goes through you can post the results to your thankyou.php page which will take the products ID and look it up in your database then providing you with a response URL or response HTML or whatever kind of content you choose to keep in there. this method would be better than having the response info stored by Infusionsoft because it is stored locally so it will run fasrter plus you can accommodate to what ever you want where Infusionsoft would have to accommodate to what the majority wants.

Hey Thanks for your response, The API is a good idea, I will have to do that then.

Is there a link to where I can find the API Directions? I have not seen them yet.

Thanks Again,

Thanks Justin. I meant to post here sooner but I can't get anybody to leave me alone and let me work .

Andy,

Let me know if anything else comes up as you go to implement that solution. What Justin said is right on. The Thank You page per product makes a lot of sense, but really only if you only sell one product at a time. If you sell multiple, then you end up have a field in the database and in the interface that is useful a fraction of the time.

Thanks for the ideas,

Brad
