We have service where all user interaction is done via texting (iMessage) using Sendblue. We want users to be able to refer their friends to get free credits. The easiest way we can think of would be giving that user a link to send to their friends, which, when opened, would auto-populate a message to our number, the content of that message being the referring user's number. Example:
I (phone number +1234) want to refer my friends. I send them a link, which when they click, opens a text message to +4321 (the service) with the text prepopulated with my phone number, "+1234".
Right now the entire service is run through Zapier, so ideally would be able to work through that. You can also enter Javascript blocks into Zapier to manipulate data if that would help.
The only solution I have been able to come up with so far is create a different webpage for every person's phone number, which would just be a custom html link with the above that would be clicked automatically on page open.
Is there an existing service that does this (and ideally works with Zapier)? Or would I have to do what is described above? If so, what is the easiest way to integrate that data? Is there a way to automate webpage creation?
Any and all help is appreciated!

TLDR: Is it possible to email a login button which will open a web page and enter the appropriate user information into the username/password fields? Is it possible to embed this within an HTML button, or possibly in SQL injection? If so, where should I start my research to make this happen?
OK, so what I am tasked with is generating the billing lists for about 2000 non-technical users. Currently we use a third party billing site which does not have an API or any way to authenticate users from the URL heading. What we have been doing is using mail-merge to email users their username and password along with a link to the billing site. This is great, except that our users are... special. We get dozens of phone calls a day from elderly users who can't copy/paste the given information into the website.
What I am looking for is someone to point me in the right direction for making an email click here button that will open the web page, enter the username and password (from a CSV/XML of usernames/passwords) and click enter.
I'd even settle for opening the webpage with their credentials filled into the appropriate fields. Is there a way to do this? What is the best way to go about this?
Before we get into best practices/security, CC information isn't stored on the site, and the only user info view-able is the invoice, so security isn't a huge concern here since the users can't set their own passwords (username / password generated from static fields in another database silo).
Not looking for someone to do this project for me, but perhaps a few friendly pointers in the right direction for how to do this.
Is it possible to email a login button which will open a web page and enter the appropriate user information into the username/password fields?
Not unless either:
The website is specifically designed to allow that. Since you said it was a third party side, then you would have to ask the people who wrote it.
The site suffered from an XSS security vulerability. (Explaining how to search for one would be too broad for a SO answer, searching for one would be illegal pretty much everywhere).
I've been coding a website, it's nearly finished but I want users to be able to sign up for a newsletter. I've found that you can use the submit button but I don't know how to. How do you get the button to email you the information? Any help appreciated, thanks.
Typically the page contains a series of input elements ( think text boxes etc) which the user puts their data in to, the submit button POSTs a form to the server, the server can then access those form values and use them as required.
So in your scenario the server received an email address and name, for example, and you have an email library which can send that information to you. Alternatively of course you might put that information in a database so you can more easily handle subscriptions.
Look at this tutorial how get user email and save in database.

I am trying to add the tab to a page I am admin of.
I use the url to do that -
http://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=&next=.
Facebook shows a list of all the pages I am admin of. And that drop down has no specific sorting order.
Now my problem is - I have multiple pages with same page name. They ofcourse have different urls. I tried changing the name of pages, but due to high number of likes I can't change the names.
The only option I am left with is hit & Trial. And I have to do it for more than 30 apps.
So you understand my pain point.
Please advice any alternative.
Thanks

I would recommend writing down the page ids and making some sort of system for yourself to remember (perhaps only the last few digits) which page is which.
In any case, there is a way for you to add a tab application directly to a page without ever seeing that "Add Page Tab" dialog. You can do it all through the API. This means you'll need your pages access token so head on over to the Graph API Explorer, make sure you click the "get access token" button and mark the manage_pages permission.
You need to query /me/accounts to get a list of all the pages you administer.
You'll see a list with the page id, name, category... I hope you will be able to identify your page more easily here. Once you have, you'll need to get the access_token for that page. Keep a record of it - we'll need it in a few minutes. You'll also need the page id.
Modify the following URL to include the parameters we got previously -
https://graph.facebook.com/PAGE_ID/tabs?app_id=TAB_APP_ID&method=post&access_token=PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN
Navigate to that URL and if all goes well, you'll get a simple true message indicating that the action was successful.
I would like to create a web application where a user can drag and drop images and text onto a div or similar container. Then, when the user clicks a save button, the application would be able to save the content of the dropped items, as well as the positional information for those items.
Ultimately the user should be able to come back, open then application, and have the images and text back in the exact same places as when they were saved.
If anyone knows a methodology or framework that could assist in accomplishing this, it would be appreciated.
When the user hits the save button, you will need to collect the dynamic state of the current web page (which sounds like images and positions) and send that to your server with some sort of user id that uniquely and securely identifies this user. The next time that user loads this web page, you can either put the state into the web page as it is retrieved from the server or you can use client-side javascript to retrieve that user's state from the server and then dynamically modify the page to match the desired state.
You can save the state to the server with either an ajax call or a post. You can retrieve the state from the server from the client javascript using an ajax call or if the state was already put into the web page by the server, you can just refer to it there.
Hi i am having an asp webpage which i am creating to make a ticketing system but the issue is that if lets say a user pressed a seat number A1 and he submits the form the data is stored in google docs but i am not able to make that seat disabled for the other users..how can i do this? for testing purposes i have uploaded the page to this site
This is the page that i am trying to create it is still in very early stage so the submit wont work..
AS u can see that i have href to A1 only and it is having some background color issues which i have to deal with that as well..my understanding is that i have to do this on the serverside so that the next person will be shown as that seat is taken thanks..
i am not able to make that seat disabled for the other users..how can i do this?
When generating the page, your server side code must look up what seats are available and show those.
When a seat request is submitted then the server side code needs to check if it is still available and present an error message ("Sorry, it seems that someone else has reserved seat A1 while you were making your choice, please select an alternative seat") if it isn't.
The specifics depend on how you are accessing your data store.
