Key benefits of using Personalized links (Salesforce ID)

Recognizing a Customer by their Record ID provides two key benefits:

Personalized links (Salesforce ID) are available for Booking pages and Master pages.

  • When you work with Booking pages, Personalized links (Salesforce ID) will be available only for Booking pages owned by Users connected to Salesforce.
  • When you work with Master pages, Personalized links (Salesforce ID) will always be available to you. However, Booking pages owned by Users who are not connected to Salesforce will work as General links.

NoteFor security and privacy reasons, using CRM record IDs to skip or prepopulate the Booking form is not compatible with collecting data from an embedded Booking page or redirecting booking confirmation data.
