The US Department of Labor (DOL) has an application called "GPMS" that is built using Appian. The application's url is cmp.dol.gov/.../.
My company builds a related web application. There's duplication between the GPMS (Appian) application and our web application. For example, the GPMS application has "case" records and so does our application. We want to make it easy for a user to navigate from a case in our application to the corresponding case in the GPMS (Appian) application.
The users have entered the GPMS (Appian) "case IDs" (8 digit numbers) into our system. Is there a way to construct a link using only the numeric case ID that would open the corresponding case record in Appian?
For example, let's say there's a case with ID "123456789" in GPMS (Appian). The current url to the page in GPMS is something like the following:
cmp.dol.gov/.../{...long encrypted parameter...}/view/summary
There's no way for our application to know what the "long encrypted parameter" part of the URL is. Is there an alternative url scheme that accepts a simple record ID? For example, something like:
cmp.dol.gov/.../record-by-id/123456789/view/summary
