By encoding Form data in a URL, you can take a registered platform user to a Form that has select fields pre-filled with default data.

https://domain/networking/servicedesk/index.jsp?applicationId=appID#_objectName/new /_form_title=formTitle/fieldName=value/...

where:

domain - The domain used to access the platform.
appID - The application ID, taken from the Application Properties.
objectName - The name of the Object, taken from the Object Information section of the Object Properties.
formTitle - The name of the form, taken from the Form Properties.
fieldName - The name of a object Field that is displayed in the form.
value - The value to pre-fill.

Considerations

For all parameter values, use "+" instead of a space.
Example: My Applicationbecomes: My+Application
Parameters must be specified in the order shown, separated by a slash ("/")
If a data value includes a "/", encode it using %2F.
Example: either/or becomes: either%2For
