Pre-population of Fields

[Karen_Black]

Are there constraints that pre-population does not work when forms are used in external sites with embed code? Thanks for any help you can provide! 

[SanfordWhiteman]

There is that constraint -- but there are options.

One is to use a server-side API call to prepop the data.

Another is a special trick I am literally working on as we speak and will publsh in a couple of days (doesn't require API).

Hi Sanford -- would love to hear how you go around this that I can share with our web and operations team!

[SanfordWhiteman]

I'll work up a demo and let you know.

[Chick_Webb]

Please do.  We're very interested in this, as well.

Would love to hear about other possible solutions too. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm actually presenting this at the NY MUG in August.  I probably won't publish anything before then but you can look for the meeting notes/video.

Did you ever present this? Did you publish it?

[SanfordWhiteman]

I did -- see NYC MUG 2015-08 v2​ -- but I have an even more streamlined approach that I've been using since then.  I fully intend to blog about it over at http://blog.teknkl.com but alas, so much to do...

We created guided landing pages in Marketo and put them in an iFrame on our external website. It didn't impacted the look and feel and we're able to leverage all the Forms 2.0 functionalities. Here's an article about implementing Marketo forms on the websites: Revenue Pulse | Marketo Consulting – Implementing Marketo Forms On Your Website – What’s Best For Yo...
