Direct to Record Summary after record creation

Is there any way to direct the user to a record summary page after submission (creation) of the record? We suggested a confirmation page with a recordLink, but the customer would prefer not to click another link to get there.

The only hacky way I can think of is to chain the user to the a user input task to display the record summary interface, but this means no record navigation, related actions, etc.

AFAIK there is no direct way. In my last app, I tried to keep the user in a "next-action" loop after creating the record. This way, there is no need to go to the record.

I also don't know of a direct way for this redirection.

As you said, we can take the user to another user input task. With the latest Appian features, we can build an interface similar to the record view. For instance, we can show related actions using the record action component, show navigation links to differentiate views, but this is somewhat time-consuming activity.

my first idea was in general: why not using a site and report/Process and start form with record actions?
