Have you got further update regarding the said Kudoz?

I contacted the client to explain whether should it be translated in literal sense or idiomatic. Couldn't get a reply yet, however, I am thinking like "to start something". The text is:

More context needed More context is required. What does the app do? Need more examples of how this phrase is used. Is it a proper name/term specific to this app, or a general terms used to describe something about the app.

It would be most helpful if there is a website for this product that can be accessed to see the term being used.

پائپ پر ضرب لگانا

Will be the translation but it doesn't refers to it according to context in which it is used. Its more like a domain limited phrase which according to me means "رکاوٹ ہٹانا" or similar.

یہاں
to punch the pipe
کا مطلب پائب میں سوراخ کرنا نہیں ہے۔ سیاق سے بھی یہ بات ظاہر ہے کہ یہاں سوشل میڈیا کے ذریعے باہمی رابطے کی بات کی جارہی ہے۔ پائپ کا کام ترسیل کرنا اور جوڑنا ہے۔ کمپیوٹر کی اصطلاح میں پائپ کے معنی
a connection to the Internet or to a website
بھی آتے ہیں۔ لہذا یہاں اسی طرح کا مفہوم مراد لینا ہوگا۔
