Possible to add default field data to direct url? #1281

Open andykearney opened 1 year ago

andykearney commented 1 year ago

Is it possible to add a specific field default to the direct feed url?

Example:

XXXX-XXXX-XXXX.com/index.php/actions/feed-me/feeds/run-task?direct=1&feedId=XXX&passkey=XXXXXXXXX&fields[variant-locationStock]=0&offset=163&limit=6

Use case.

We built a custom inventory management system and manage approx 30k product variants from google sheets. I can generate direct feed urls for groups of variants on a google sheet for convenient updating of data with a single click, however I want to include specific defaults in the direct feed url depending on the data being updated, rather than having to potentially change the field mapping manually each time.

I’m not sure I 100% understand what you are trying to achieve, but I think the answer is no the way you describe it. But if I understand what you try to achieve, the easiest way is perhaps to hook onto Feed Me’s afterParseFeed event, and set the default values you would like:

https://docs.craftcms.com/feed-me/v4/developers/events.html#data-fetching-related-events

I’d be happy to help you out, if you describe what you want to achieve in a bit more detail.

(P.S. I guess this shouldn’t really be filed as a bug, maybe more a feature request, and perhaps belongs on the discussions page.)
