Request.QueryString is the right code to use, if it isn't working for you then post the code you've tried.

string var = "http://localhost:6794/mypageurl.com/Login/Signup.aspx?userid=" + Request.QueryString["userid"];
label1.Text = var;

You might want to load it into an intermediary variable first and check it is in a valid format before using it.

I have removed the actual URL of your site since it wasn't required for your question, and it made the question look like spam.

user id textbox is autofill

That is because the application knows the relation between this UUID and the user who generated this link.

Yes, that is the approach to capture any query string parameters passed to the URL. In this case, uid.

This is because perhaps the database does not contain any reference to this value. Note that this value is specific to the application that generated the UUID.

Secondly, a TextBox is only going to show a user id entered if your application adds the value to it. TextBox does not know the relation between the UUID and the user profile.

Here is a workflow for this:

Capture the UUID from the query string.
Query the database to find if a referral code with this UUID exists.
If it does, then get the user id and input that in the TextBox.
If it does not, then show the error message stating this code is invalid.

As you might guess, you need to create a database table for this record. This can be a starter schema for the table:

ReferralCodeId | Referee | CreatedOn
1234           | 4321    | January 20, 2020

Then you can create a separate table that contains the records of the consumption of this code. But you get the idea.
