Updating LIST property using update_property_link

I am trying to add a value to a custom property, which should be a LIST.

Unfortunately, the list is overwritten by the value I entered in the link - instead of the value being appended to the list.

I have googled and searched this forum, finding some older posts about this - and no solution. Hopefully something has happened during the 2-3 years since last post about it :)

 

Is it in anyway possible to add a value to a property of type LIST when clicking a link in an email? I looked into the flow solution, using segments. But you can’t trigger a flow when a profile has been updated so … 

Any ideas?

Ah, okay I understand now, @GitteOlrik! Unfortunately, updating a property through a link is only possible with a single value, not a list of values.

Hey there @GitteOlrik! Can you show me in screenshots what you’re trying to do? What’s the use-case here?

I have tried inserting 2 images - 1 showing the custom property as we would like it to be (a list) and 1 showing the link to click, to update the property.

The link value is {% update_property_link ‘Interesse’ ‘Styrke’ ‘https://fitnessengros.dk/c/styrke’ %}
