SPOD’s new deep linking feature allows merchants to add parameters to the Customizer.
Previously, when a customer clicked your shop’s Customizer link, they’d be taken directly to the tool. Now, merchants can specify what the customer will specifically see when they enter the tool. Besides the Customizer function, merchants can also specify any design topics, design IDs, or products.
There are three specific functionalities of the new deep linking feature:
Deep link Tool Panels
- Parameter panel=XXX
- Replace XXX with designs for the design panel, the productTypes for the product panel or upload for the image upload panel
- Example: https://spod-samples.myshopify.com/pages/customizer?panel=productTypes
Deep link Design Topics
- Parameter designSearch=XXX
- Replace XXX with the search term
- Example: https://spod-samples.myshopify.com/pages/customizer?designSearch=father
Deep link Specific Design ID
- Parameter designId= XXX
- Replace XXX with the design ID. This can be found below the design image (only use the long number)
- Example: https://spod-samples.myshopify.com/pages/customizer?designId=1014425056
Deep link Specific Product
- Parameter productId=XXX
- Replace XXX with the product ID. This is the first part of the product’s SKU. The SKU can be found in the ‘product detail view.’
- Example: https://spod-samples.myshopify.com/pages/customizer?productId=1047220123
Deep link Categories
- Parameter departmentId=1 "Men"
- Parameter departmentId=2 "Women"
- Parameter departmentId=3 "Kids & Babies"
- Parameter departmentId=4 "Accessories"
- Example: https://spod-samples.myshopify.com/pages/customizer?departmentId=1
