I have a record for cases I have been creating in my app.On record grid when I click on caseIds a process model is invoked and flow is taken further.I want to create for url for different records based on user need.

For general records with summary view I am aware of the steps.How do I create for this scenario where I dont have summary view/related actions;just record grid with each id invoking new process.

Early response is appreciated thanks!

Hi @priyas007, Please use STart process link to start a process model when user click on link.

Hi [mention:cab0a11ff023462b92619f3a6137ae4a:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05], as far as I understand your use case, you have a grid with a list of ids and you want to click on any of the id which will start a process along with some parameters. If my understanding is correct, you can utilize the following code to create links (however, it is not a best practice):

local!processLink: a!startProcessLink(
	processModel: cons!PROCESS_MODEL,
	processParameters: {
		key1: "param1",
		key2: "param2"
	}
)

local!link: a!safeLink(
	uri: cons!BASE_SITE_URL &
	"/start-process/" & index(local!processLink, "processModelOpaqueId", "") & "?parameters=" & index(local!processLink, "cacheKey", "")
)

If this doesn't help, could you please elaborate more about your requirement?

Thanks Madhusudan!You understood it correctly.I was looking more for direct usage than local variable.Though your solution works as well.

But solution by [mention:33aa1c2b02db47c8a3ebf02f294ad101:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] is more simpler and direct to use.
