Can permalink attributes be used to pre-load the cart with subscription/plan products? There’s an option to include a product variant id, but can we include a plan id?

Hey @Jinxo and @saeba ! I believe I figured it out, this url will clear the cart, add items with a selling_plan and then redirect to checkout: https://{SHOP}.myshopify.com/cart/clear?return_to=/cart/add?items[][id]={VARIANT_ID}%26items[][quantity]={QUANTITY}%26items[][selling_plan]={SELLING_PLAN_I…

Thank you Phil, that worked perfectly!

Phil, I was able to use this to add my product with its specific plan to the cart, but then I was also trying to add another item to the cart (free upgrade for first month when signing up for 6 or 12 month plan) but it doesn’t seem to want to add the second product because it is not a subscription …

Hi @WowieDogs ! You should be able to have non-subscription and subscription products in the same cart, it works for me so the issue is most likely somewhere else.

Hey @Phillip_Malboeu , thank you so much for this great solution. It works very well - I’m just wondering if you can add a discount code on to it somehow, as you can with permalinks like the below? e.g. https://{SHOP}.myshopify.com//cart/39434614276148:1,39408637149236:1?discount=MEMBERSHIP I put …

Hey @Amelia7 , no worries! Adding a %26discount=MEMBERSHIP would do it. %26 is the URL encoding of the &. Cheers, Phil

You’re amazing, thank you so much!

Hi. This is really helpful, but I couldn’t find any official documentation about the URL query params for subscriptions. Is this method officially supported by Shopify? Or is there a possibility that this method will stop working someday? Thanks.
