urlForRecord function for Sites

Question

Hi All,

urlForRecord function can be used to navigate to a record dashboard directly by passing the recordID. Do we have something similar for records which are part of Sites. For example, I want to divert a user from an external portal to a specific record dashboard on Appian site once authentication is done.

Thanks.
Hitesh

I know this an old post but I encountered the issue recently and this expression have worked for me { a!safeLink( label: "", uri: fn!substitute( fn!urlforrecord( recordtype: , recordIds: ), rule!APN_getSiteUrl()& "tempo/records/item/", rule!APN_getSiteUrl() & "sites//page/program-dashboard/record/" ) ) } using this expression in record link solved my problem as it allows the summary view to open in a new window preserving my filters selected in the current window.

Hi, You can use a!recordLink a!recordLink( label: , recordType: , identifier: )

You can do this by building a URL dynamically:

fn!load(
local!siteURL: rule!APN_getSiteUrl(),
/*Get identifier of record*/
local!recordIdentifier: a!recordLink(
recordType: <record type>,
identifier: <record identifier>
).@attributes.@anyAttribute._recordRef,
/*Build the site record url*/
local!finalSiteURL: fn!concat(
local!siteURL,
"sites/",
<name of the site here>,
"/page/",
<name of the page here>,
"/record/",
local!recordIdentifier,
"/view/",
rule!APN_replaceNull(
nullableValue: <dashboard >,
replacementValue:"summary"
)
),
/*Get the site record url*/
local!finalSiteURL
)
