a!safelink to User record type on Site

I've been wondering this too. I assume it's not possible using current functionality, as I don't necessarily see a way to grab the record URL stub (at least, without poking around in the back-end functionality of a!userRecordLink and manually reconstructing the user record URL).

It seems to me that it would be a lot easier and more flexible if Appian would build in new parameters (presumably to a!recordLink and a!userRecordLink) allowing us to manually set them for "open in new tab", since this is such a common use case.

As an intermediate solution, is there anything wrong with adding some instructions to inform the user that a new window can be opened by right-clicking? :)

That's probably a good solution as it's both OOB and also provides positive user training ;-)

For those interested, this will give you the URL as Mike suggested:

=load(
local!stub:index(index(a!userRecordLink(user:<YOUR_USER_HERE>),"@attributes"),"@anyattribute",null)._recordRef,
local!url:urlforrecord(recordType:<CONSTANT_OF_TYPE_USER_RECORD>,recordIds:1),
local!suburl:extract(local!url,"item/","/view"),
a!textField(value:substitute(local!url,local!suburl,local!stub))
)

And to display on a site (not tempo), use:
load(
/*replace with environment-specific constant, example yoursite:8080/.../
local!site:<YOUR SITE>
/*replace with constant--same across environments, example your-page*/
local!sitePage:<YOUR PAGE ON THE SITE>
/*replace user with your rule input*/
local!stub:index(index(a!userRecordLink(user:<YOUR USER>),"@attributes"),"@anyattribute",null)._recordRef,
local!site&"/page/"&local!sitePage&"/record/"&local!stub&"/view/summary"
)

Hey Evan, thanks for your help - we used your code to successfully open a record through sites in a new tab. Wonder if there are other ways to do so but this worked great. Thank you!
