Solved: <<_ROW_WEB_URL>> to a specific view

Soporte_Gestion · 10-20-2021 03:24 PM

Hi!
Is there a way that when the user clicks on the link of <<_ROW_WEB_URL>> to show a specific UX view?

Steve

In your template, try prefixing your <<LINKTOROW(...)>> expression with:

https://www.appsheet.com/start/<<_APPID>>

To produce something like:

https://www.appsheet.com/start/<<_APPID>><<LINKTOROW(row-key, view-name, [app-id])>>

With appropriate arguments for LINKTOROW().

Hi @Soporte_GestionApp

Not sure about what you mean, but maybe you are looking for one of these:

If you add the expression ** <<_ROW_WEB_URL>> ** to de email body, it links to a row from the App, so when you click it, it opens the App and show you a detail view, I need to change that final view belonging to the expression <<_ROW_WEB_URL>> and I don’t know how to do it.

Aurelien

I don’t know if it’s feasible.

@Steve , I allow myself to call you on help with this question !

Steve

You cannot use <<_ROW_WEB_URL>> to do what you want. Instead, you’ll have to generate a URL to the row in the desired view using LINKTOROW().

Hi Steve, I get the LINKTOROW expression but I never use it to convert it as a link in an email body.
Is there a way to do it?
Do I need to add the expression to the email body like this:<< LINKTOROW(row-key, view-name, [app-id])>> ?

Steve

Try and see what happens.

Great solution Steve!
Is there a way to wrap the expression into an Hyperlink in the email body?

Steve

You can try. I’ve not tried, so I’m not sure it’ll work.

First, go to Users >> Links in the app editor and grab your app’s browser link:

Then replace the expression we tried previously with this instead:

<<HYPERLINK(("browser-link" & LINKTOROW(...)), "clickable-text")>>

Replace browser-link with the link copied from the app editor above; replace ... with your LINKTOROW() arguments; and replace clickable-text with whatever text you want the hyperlink to display.
