Unknown source of cart_link_id in add to cart events

[LDev255]

Hi,

I'm seeing add to cart events from the cart page with the cart_link_id query param in the URL? e.g. /cart?cart_link_id=<cart-link-id>

The referrer URL is set to https://shopify.com/

I have done some digging but have not been able to identify where this is coming from.  If I navigate to the URL I am taken to a preloaded cart page with an item in the cart.

Does anyone know where and how these links are generated? I have checked abandoned cart emails and other marketing apps which don't appear to have this format of link

Hi @LDev255,

Can you share your store's url so as i can take look at it.

Hi @Dills 

This is for a soft launched client site so I am unable to share the store URL. I reviewed the theme and cannot find any instances of the cart_link_id being appended to the URL. The links on the site are all direct to checkout link so customers should never reach the cart page.

Do you have any idea on what would be directing the customer to the cart page with the cart_link_id in the URL?
