Challenge with navigation using variables and deep linking

Posted on by 714 Super User 2025 Season 1

So I successfully used MSs instructions and managed to get deep linking working but then broke it with a navigation change and I readily admit I'm just not smart enough to figure out the variables and parameters.

 

So here I am on bended knee.

 

App

OnStart:

 

Set(AppID, "86d39419-1d42-4371-a036-825d0d07f0ad");
If(Not(IsBlank(Param("surveyId"))),Set(surveyId,Param("surveyId")));

 

Start Screen:

 

If(Not(IsBlank(Param("surveyId"))),DetailScreen1,BrowseScreen1)

 

Browse Screen

OnSelect:

 

Navigate(DetailScreen1, ScreenTransition.Fade, {surveyVal:ThisItem});

 

Detail Screen

OnVisible:

 

If(Not(IsBlank(surveyId)), UpdateContext({surveyVal:LookUp('BusMarket - IBC PreSurvey', ID = surveyId)}));
UpdateContext({varConfirmDeletePopUp:false})

 

DetailForm1

Item:

 

surveyVal

 

Edit Screen

EditForm1

Item:

 

BrowseGallery1.Selected

 

OnSuccess:

 

Navigate(DetailScreen1, ScreenTransition.Fade, {surveyId: surveyVal})

 

 

So it appears to me I can improve consistency by modifying the Item property on the EditForm but that's not really the problem.

 

I modified the OnSuccess property on Friday to get the user back to the Detail Screen looking at the Item they just saved.

But in doing that, I've broken the link into the detail screen.

 

Here is the url that is being generated to route the user:

    Replying to my own post for a little bump. Maybe someone else will see it.
