Dynamic URL showing as %7B%7D instead of the actual RecordID

[phuuuuu00]

Hi all,

I think I might be going mental but I had this whole page set up but it has since stopped working today. I have set up Airtable column called Identifier (I called it ID before, now I’m trying to debug this) where there is a RecordID per user created.

I then set up a button called where they will lead to a page called /short-profile where this page will show that unique page of that RecordID.

For example, I have this link https://app.taga.club/short-profile?recordID=recVATST76xPH1R35 and I set up the link (open a page) as /short-profile?recordID={Identifier}

For some reason, this is resulting in this format (instead of the actual link as per example above) https://app.taga.club/short-profile?recordID=%7BIdentifier%7D What is this %7B%7D and why is this happening?? I didn’t have this yesterday!

Thank you

Hi,

The %7B and %7D refers to { and }

short-profile?recordID={Identifier} directly comes from Airtable (a formula field)? Or did you add it staticly in the button url option?

Hi! Yeah so I put the URL on the button as per below and the Identifier is a formula of RECORD_ID() from Airtable. I haven’t changed anything yet and this might actually be a bug though not sure from which source. It literally worked last night and it just stopped working.

In order to make it work, the url should come from a formula field in Airtable.

The formula should be like this (just copy paste)

'https://app.taga.club/short-profile?recordId='&Identifier

Then you use this new field to open the right page with the item details button.
