We have a question regarding the EID and CID values concatenated to the URL for the Webform confirmation page redirection.
We added the &PageID=/Results.htm, which works great. We want to use the Webform confirmation page redirection to "call" a "webpage" named results.php on a separate non business catalyst website that we host.
We want to extract the EID and CID values from the URL, and use the business catalyst APIs to access our business catalyst site and retrieve the Contact data (via the EID) and the Case data (via the CID) and thus be able to put the submitted Webform data values into our database in close to realtime. The alternative of using the Notification API and querying the Contact and Case data via the APIs is said to have an up to 10 minute delay, which does not work for our use case.
This looks like it should work well, but we are concerned about whether business catalyst will continue with the same URL format and querystring format including the EID and CID when the redirect is done.
Can anyone let me know their thoughts about how stable this querystring format, with the EID and CID values, might be going forward? We will be relying on it.
Thank you for your help.
