==About Platform URLs==
Every page you visit has a {{^URL}} that can be used (by someone with a platform login) to access virtually any element of the platform. That URL is displayed in the browser's address bar, and can be pasted into an email or a document.
Many of the pages you visit have a {{^URL}} that can be used (by someone with a platform login) to go to directly to that portion of the platform. That URL is displayed in the browser's address bar, and can be pasted into an email or a document.
 
===Platform URL Patterns===
Once you know the pattern, you can also simply type a URL that matches one of those patterns into your browser.
 
:{| cellspacing="0px" cellpadding="0px"
|-
| style="min-width:4.7em"|
* [[Application]] URL
|
&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/app/{application_id}</tt>
 
|-
|
* [[Dashboard]] URL
|
&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/dashboard/{page_id}</tt>
 
|-
| valign="top"|
* [[Record URL]]
|
&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/record/{record_id}</tt>
<br>&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/record/{[[#Record Name|record_name]]}</tt>
 
|-
|
* [[Report]] URL
|
&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/report/{report_id}</tt><br>
 
|-
|
* [[View]] URL
|
&nbsp; <tt>{{platformURL}}/view/{object_name}/{view_id}</tt>
|}
 
 
The Record URL is particularly worthy of note because, once things are set up properly, you can use the record ''name'' to define the URL. (More on that subject below.)
 
;Considerations:
Some URLs go to the platform GUI, and display the page as a tab within it. Other URLs display the page content only, without the platform GUI surrounding it. The following table shows which is which:
:{|  border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1"
! URL !! Full GUI !! Content Only
|-
| [[Application]] URL ||  align="center"|[[File:Checkmark.gif|link=]]    ||
|-
| [[Dashboard]] URL  ||  || align="center"|[[File:Checkmark.gif|link=]]

|-
| [[Report]] URL      ||  || align="center"|[[File:Checkmark.gif|link=]]

About Platform URLs

Many of the pages you visit have a URL that can be used (by someone with a platform login) to go to directly to that portion of the platform. That URL is displayed in the browser's address bar, and can be pasted into an email or a document.
