Query Strings with Multi-Select Contacts

ArielDB

Is it possible to put multiple contacts into Query String?

As you can see, with a multi select you can do ?[name of column]=[value 1]&[name of same column]=[value 2]

I.E. ?M=1&M=2

This behavior does not work when I try it on multi-select contacts. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this a bug? is there different syntax for contacts?

Thanks for your help!

Hi @ArielDB

Contact fields do have different functionality to a text multi-select dropdown. I don't know of a way to populate a contact field with multiple contacts using a query string.

I would recommend setting the contacts as Defaults in your form builder instead of using the query string, if possible (see: Edit or remove fields in a form)

Please also submit your feature request to the Product team by creating an Idea Post in the Smartsheet Product Feedback and Ideas topic here in the Community. This will allow other users to vote on your enhancement idea!
