Using URL (from arguments)

[stevenm]

I've seen plenty of matches and hints on google searches for this but I just can't get this to work on my Helsinki Developer instance using Chrome.

I have created   a navigation link with a module to open a new Work Order with a single field filled in.   At first I tried populating a field I added to the table.   When that didn't work I tried short_description.   No matter what format I use for the link I cannnot get the field filled in.   1) what's wrong with my syntax and 2) should this work on user defined fields as well as ootb table fields?

In my module:

Link Type: URL (from Arguments).

Arguments: https://myinstance/nav_to.do?uri=wm_order.do?sys_id=-1%26sysparm_query=short_description=ambulatory

My user added field is u_tracking_type which I tried in place of short_description, it didn't populate either.

Never mind, this syntax does work.   For some reason the favorite I was using to test this out wasn't working properly at all.

please check with below arguments:

incident.do?sys_id=-1&sysparm_query=active=true^short_description=Nothing&sysparm_stack=incident_list.do?sysparm_query=active=true

do not mention the instance name.
