Navigating to page at end of flow interaction

Last Updated: 08/08/2016 Introduced in Verision: 2.0

Flows can be used to control portal navigation. This example will show how to navigate to a specific folder/page using a flow.

 
Example
Before creating a flow, you need to know the id of the folder you want to navigate to. For this example, we will navigate to the My Home folder. To get this folder’s id, click on the little arrow next to the folder and select Manage > Get Person ID.
 

getID 

 
In the dialog that opens, select and copy the id

Create a new flow (see Creating your First Flow) with a simple form (see Creating Your First Form Flow). Put one button on your form that says Go to Home Page.

In the Toolbox, expand Forms and drag End Form Session onto your work space.
 

 dragEndFormSession

 
Click on your new End Form Session step to edit its properties. In the Behavior section, set Options to Navigate
 

behNavigate 

 
You will now see new options appear in this steps properties for setting FolderId and PageName. The folder id is the id of the folder you want to navigate to and the page name is the Name of the page you want to open. Enter the ID we copied earlier and the name of My Home.

Connect End Form Session to the end step.

Save, close and run your flow.
