Record Additional/Custom View Identifier is getting changed across environment after deployment.

Certified Senior Developer

While defaulting the record to show custom/additional view instead of "summary" view, the identifier ("/view/_dmXYZX") is getting changed to ("/view/_aXXYX") after deployment (Appian version 17.2)

How can we browse to the custom/additional record view on click of a link?

Below is the code snippet,

 a!recordLink(
        label: "",
        recordType: <<RECORD_TYPE>>,
        identifier: <<IDENTIFIER>>,
        dashboard: "_dmXYZX" /*depending on condition the value is either summary or _dmXYZX*/
      )

Unlike the below post we are seeing the generated identifier is not the same in each environment.

    From last one year we have been using this static identifiers and it worked like a charm.

    We were making sure for any alternative before opening up a case.

    1. We started observing the sudden differences only in few environments after deployment.
    2. Also the change of identifiers is observed when we deploy record type object.
    3. I confirmed there is no tampering of XML of Record Type object.

    Thanks Kevin!
