    Laura, I like your requirement but I don't think that is available yet.

    Hello!

    I would need the same feature. Is there any update on this? Is it doable?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    After 2 years, I am wondering if you have any update regarding this feature. We still need the option to create a URL to access the Update Form of a specific record (Form based app).

    Thanks

    I set up a workaround for this issue.  I created a new view form in the form based app and added an auto-lookup that filters the list based on a URL parameter.  The auto-lookup triggers on form load & related field value change.  That way I can build the URL in my email template, and when a user clicks on it, it takes them to the view and shows only the single record related to the email.  They still have to click on the edit icon to go to the update form, but it helps a lot because they don't have to view the whole list and then filter it themselves.

    For example, my app is called LaurasApp.  My view form is Incidents by Link, and my parameter is linkIncident.  So my URL looks like this, where INC103078 is an example incident number:

    https://<myserver>/ApplicationBuilder/eFormRender.html?FormApplication=LaurasApp_Incidents%20by%20Link&hidebackground=true&linkIncident=INC103078

    I have a text field called IncidentNumber on the view form that defaults to ${linkIncident}.  My filter condition on the auto-lookup includes where the Incident field contains ${IncidentNumber}.  I suppose I could have used ${linkIncident} directly in the filter condition, but I was experimenting with using a text field as a filter, and I ended up leaving it that way.

    I searched and found this info in AgilePoint NX v8.0, Software Update 2 release notes. https://documentation.agilepoint.com/SupportPortal/DOCS/ProductDocumentation/Hotfixes/Document/maps/readme08000002.html 

    13.0316.02

    In a form-based app, email notifications can be sent when a record is added, updated, or deleted.

     

    I tried the feature and the email generated by AgilePoint notification contains the URL upon click of that I am navigated directly to edit of my record.
