How can I create a deep link to a subtab for a custom object in Application Composer?

This topic covers how you create a direct link to a subtab for a custom object.

You can create a direct page link to the default summary tab for a custom object. You can use this direct page link URL pattern https://<host name>:<port>/<application>/faces/FuseOverview?fndTaskItemNodeId=CRM_CUSTOM_TAB_<XXXX>&fndGlobalItemNodeId=CRM_CUSTOM_CARD_<XXXX>&fnd=%3BsubTabName%253DSUMMARY%253BObjectId%253D<YYYY>%253B%3B%3B%3Bfalse%3B256%3B%3B%3B as follows:

  1. Copy the first part of the URL https://<host name>:<port>/<application>/faces/FuseOverview? from the instance's actual home page.
  2. Replace XXXX with the custom object's API name using all upper case letters including _C. For example, TROUBLETICKET_C.
  3. Obtain the API name from the object's overview page by clicking the object's node in the Custom Objects tree in Application Composer.
  4. Replace YYYY with the custom object's primary key in the database.
