How do I display multiple designees when composing my own transaction summary for an API donation?

Hi Adam,

I was out last week so I missed some of these posts and finally getting to them. Can you tell me if you ever figured this one out? I think you may need to open a Support case to get someone to chime in. Might even need to get a Services Engineer to take a look at solution options.

Adam Kaye:

Thanks for your response, Kent.

 

I ended up opening a Support Case to ask this same question, and the end result was that it wasn't possible.

 

They recommended I contact the client's Convio rep to ask for a quote on a custom-built solution, but I'm not sure we're going to head down that path.

This is possible, though not with S120.

As described on http://open.convio.com/api/#main.using_redirect_parameters.html, the success_redirect parameter allows you to pass request parameters through to the URL using the syntax ${paramname}. So, you could add something like this:



&des_1_id=${designated.1.id}&des_1_amount=${designated.1.amount}&des_2_id=${designated.2.id}&des_2_amount=${designated.2.amount}


Then on your thank you page, you can use the S334 tag to get those values, e.g. 



[[S334:des_1_id]]

[[S334:des_1_amount]]

[[S334:des_2_id]]

[[S334:des_2_amount]]

Thanks very much for your response, Noah.

 

Can the same principle be applied to the autoresponder email that gets sent to the donor?

Nope, that would only work on the thank you page.

Hi there, 


A few years later - wondering if a way has been found to get it into e-mail? 


Thanks,

Hello Luminate Community.

 

I have an API donation form that allows the donor to select from a list of designees to determine which of our programs receive all or a portion of the donation.

 

In the past, we've used the default transaction summary on the Thank You page, and each designee gets its own row in the table along with the amount that was designated specifically for that program. (see attached screen shot)

 

Now, I'm trying to customize the transaction summary according to our client's request by rebuilding it using S120 tags, but I'm unable to figure out how to display a row for each designee and the amount that has been designated for that program.

 

I see that I can display the total amount donated as well as a list of all of the designees that were selected (see second attached screen shot), but I can't figure out how to show each designated amount next to the program for which it was designated. Is it possible that that's just not an option when building a custom transaction summary?

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.

 

Adam
