Hi im trying to run a promotion where the user gets something after they share my app on facebook or twitter. can anybody think of a way to do this? Im assuming i cant use the add to any buttons. Thanks!
I think the way to do this would be to add the userid of the sharer to the shared url. Then when they click through to a landing page you can do a search and trigger the workflow.
Triggering on ACTUAL share, rather than clicking a button, is much harder (and I am not sure it is possible on some platforms, they don’t tell you about the share).
At the easy end, put the share button in a group, and trigger on that.

Ok, so here is a refer page.
It uses add to any ,but uses the userid in the link parameter.
https://forum_app.bubbleapps.io/version-test/landing?referer=1455356551051x398780476301908500
The landing page then pulls this out.
You can then run something on page load to store this. But I just put it in a text box.
This is how we can send a bubble id via any channel on a url, and pull it back.
You would need to search for the user like this …
You need :firstitem to force bubble to think it is a single row. otherwise you get an error.
