Dheeraj Sudan and Meenu Hinduja-How do I set a default value with query parameters in production?

Hi Everyone, I’m Meenu Hinduja and my husband Dheeraj Sudan, run a business. I’m trying to set a default value using query parameters in production, but I’m running into some issues. In preview mode, everything works as expected, but once I publish, the default value doesn’t seem to apply correctly. Has anyone successfully implemented this?

Regards

Hey @mhindujadheerajsudan :waving_hand:

In the editor, the default value is used to make development easier when navigating between pages.

In prod, what can work do is to have a workflow (on page load (before collection load) if you are using the query param to fetch a collection). In that workflow, you can have an action “change variable value) targeting the query parameter. Your query parameter needs to be created as a variable before that, in the data panel.

That should do the trick, if not, let us know! :slight_smile:

Thank you for the guidance! I’ll create the query parameter as a variable in the data panel and set up the page load workflow to change its value before the collection loads. Appreciate the help!
