URL for Expanded Record in Interfaces

K
Forum|alt.badge.img

When using automated emails, I'd like to be able to include a URL that opens the expanded "record detail" view within an interface. Ideally, I'd be able to create a formula for this. However, I only seem to be able to do this if the record detail is "full screen" rather than "side screen." 

I know there is an individual URL for each expanded detail view in the Interface, because I can select the interlocking icon to copy the Record URL. However, I cannot find a way to get these URLs using a formula. I am using the list view. Any ideas?

Recent updates have made it possible to get URLs to Record details in the interface.

Airtable - Airtable Updates

The description says that the URL can be obtained by automation, but if you understand the URL structure, you can generate URLs with Formula fields as well.

https://airtable.com/ Interface App ID(app~) / Page ID(pag~) / Record ID(rec~) ?tableId= Table ID(tbl~)

I don't know what the function of the optional table ID is, but it seems fine without it.

https://airtable.com/ Interface App ID(app~) / Page ID(pag~) / Record ID(rec~)

@Sho Do you know how to also add in based on specific "Drop Down" selection" that is pre-set in the interface to this formula - let's day based on a specific user? I tried adding in a switch function on the formula itself to only show records for this user, but it didn't seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

@KDMcKinneyWe have developed a form that can be integrated with Airtable. This form provides a formula URL that enables users to access and expand their records, which could be beneficial in your situation, even if it is not an exactly an interface feature.
