Launch Tab - Model Driven Apps

In a Model Driven App.

 

Is there a way to use the left side navigation menu so that it navigates to a form for a particular individual record? For instance, I have a form that is used for a table that has several records for individual businesses. I want to be able to create a tab that always shows a specific individual business record when clicked for the form.

    Hi @Dmschellaz ,

     

    Could you try to copy the url of the record and add a url tab?

    Ok great - this does work; but is there a way to make it so it doesnt launch a new tab or page when the user clicks it? Id like it to just stay in the same page/app somehow.

    Hi @Dmschellaz ,

     

    Please try to copy the part of the url rather than the whole url.

    Sample:

    /main.aspx?appid=***&pagetype=entityrecord&etn=***&id=***

     

    Best Regards,

    This solution is helps to view by the existing records only. But I need an solution Request to open the newitem form which is created already in Dataverse table which needs to be open from Navigation.

    Hi 

    This works fine until you have Dev / UAT / Production environments.  Then when you deploy the solution to the next environment, the GUID of the user changes and then this stops working.

     

    IS there a way of fixing this issue caused by deploying to a new environment ?

     

    Regards
