I have a powerapp screen with app start screen using below formula and below is the Home_Screen

If(!IsBlank(Param("myparam1")),Home_Detail_Screen,Home_Screen)

While clicking on any of the news, it redirects me to newsfeed detail page which looks as in below screenshot

If I click on copy button on top right, it basically copies the URL of the particular newsfeed detail page using PCF copy to clipboard functionality

 

"https://apps.powerapps.com/play/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX?myparam1="&CurrentRecord.newsfeedID

 

I tried hitting the above URL in my browser window, it redirects me correctly to the newsfeed detail page based on newsfeed ID as in below screenshot. However if I click on back icon from top left from the below screenshot, it does nothing. It should take me to Home Screen as in 1st screenshot.

 

https://apps.powerapps.com/play/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX?myparam1=500

 

Below is the code written in back icon - Back(). Also tried Navigate(Home_Screen,ScreenTransition.None) but doesnt work. Any idea where i am going wrong?

    Hi@Iantaylor2050 

    I would have thought that Navigate(Home_Screen,ScreenTransition.None) should definitely work.

    This might be an obvious answer but when you changed the formula from Back to Navigate, did you remember to republish your app?
