Hi,
How can I make a URL unique or an URL that Expires after closing the window?
I’m building an app where users buy the same digital item multiple times around the year.
And I just realized that my current set up, allows the user to copy and paste the link of digital product and get the item for free.
How can I avoid this issue?
Thank you
Set the page type as the digital product’s type.
Whenever you navigate a user to this page, make sure to send the corresponding product as page data.
When you do this, the page url will be something like mydomain.com/product/PRODUCT’S_UNIQUE_ID
If you delete the product from your database, this url will become invalid or expired.
Then adding to what @atomicfusion said, if you set the slug (Set Slug action) of your Product that will show up in the URL instead so it looks friendly to someone
Step 1 - Add two data types in your DB - (1) is_visited_by_user? (yes/no), (2) list_of_visited_users (List of Users)
Step 2 - Set state of list_of_visited_users (User List) - When redirecting the user to product page and when Page is Loaded
Step 3 - Redirect the user to product page, only when list_of_visited_users does not contain current user.
Step 4 - If Step 3 is empty then, update the list_of_visited_users by adding current user.
Step 5 - Update list_of_visited_users state
Step 6 - Add an alert message when list_of_visited_users is not empty - “This page is expired”
When user closes the page without purchasing or doing any activity and tries to reopen the same URL alert message should come based on the state.
I have tried my best to answer your question. Please respond if my understanding is incorrect.
Thank you very much for the detailed respond. This works when the digital product is purchased once per user.
How can I do this approach for one digital product that is purchased
Thank you for the reply but I’m trying to do avoid the following:
Process:
1-.User goes to product page
2-.User purchases the digital product
3-. User gets send to a page were the digital product is
4-.User creates his Digital Product
6-. Digital Product gets added to user acccount
Issue:
My issue is with the link on the step 3. Since this is a product that the user will be purchasing frequently. How can I avoid that the user saves the link so he can have his product again for free, since that link comes after the purchase is made
Create a purchases data type with the digital product as a digital product and run conditionals off whether or not the item is in his purchases
