Get page/blog post id from CTA button

[MKukanjac]

Hey,

I am trying to replace a CTA button from around 300 pages 🙂 All of the CTA buttons are linked to internal pages/blog posts.

Need to do this since CTA links don't count as internal links, so I need to replace them with <a href="XXX">Link</a>

Is it possible to get the page id or absolute URL to the page that the CTA button is linking to?

I can only extract the CTA button id and the redirect URL.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Hi,

I am not sure, if I got you right. You can get the linked page of the CTA in the edit mode of the CTA or simply by clicking on it.

The easiest wey to get the ID of the page/blog post, is to simply click the CTA button and in your HubSpot menu go to "edit page". The ID is inside of your URL then: app.hubspot.com/pages/<your_portal>/editor/<your_id>/content

Hope this helps.

Best,
Fabian

Hey Fabian,

Sorry, I wasn't clear, but I was referring to the HUBL code. If I use a CTA field in the code and generate the CTA by using the CTA id, I only get the redirect URL that eventually leads to the real URL.

For example, the function that generates the CTA: cta('CTA_BUTTON_ID'). I could get a lot of data from it by using pprint, but no page id nor the absolute URL

I wanted to see if it's possible to get the page id or the absolute URL to that page from this CTA field.

I finally managed to do it with JavaScript since I figured that CTA button generates an attribute that's called cta_dest_link and from there you can read the absolute URL.

However, couldn't manage to find a solution using HUBL
