      Specify id of sObject of 15 or 18 digits.

      Develop the parts for acquiring id and setting parameters as necessary.

    • Description example

      This example outputs the data of Account object from the Lightning component controller into forms and displays the preview screen.

      (The organization domain name is "svfcloudmydomain", the button name is "SVFAccountButton 20160826000000000 SVF", and the data id is "001000000000 WAT1ST" in this example.)

      Example 1. In the function of controller on the client-side
      var urlEvent = $A.get("e.force:navigateToURL");
// Specify the URL directly and call it.
urlEvent.setParams({"url":'https://svfcloudmydomain.lightning.force.com/apex/svfcloud__PreviewPage?id=001000000000WAT1ST&buttonFullName=SVFAccountButton20160826120000001SVF'});
urlEvent.fire();


This completes the work for calling the preview screen of SVF Cloud for Salesforce from Lightning Experience UI.
