Possible to Open Create Record Interface from Action without Process Model?

Question

I have a very simple application that is just based on one record type that comes from an integration. Making the edit/view interface was a piece of cake. Now I need to make the create new record functionality, for which I can re-use the same interface for edit/view. 
 The issue is that I am unable to find a way to do this without creating a process model. I don't need all of the complexity of a process model. I can call the create integration from the save into in the interface. There is no work flow and I don't need to launch any kind of other process. Having a process model is WAY WAY overkill for this case. 
 How can I simply open the same interface with a blank record from the record list (via action or similar) with out needing the overkill of a process model? 
 Thanks

Should be pretty easy to do by using a dynamicLink to show/hide your creation form. Simply call your integration in the button saveInto and you're good to go.

You can't add it to the grid, you'll need another component over or under the grid.

You will need to add a dynamic link in your a!gridColumn's value parameter using a!richTextDisplayField or a!linkField
