Deep linking for Kanban widget?

Webix JS
#1

Is it possible to share a link that opens a specific card in the kanban widget? This is important for notifications, guiding the recipient back to the card where the news came from.

Hello,

What do you exactly mean by “opens a specific card in the kanban widget”?

You can open a card editor for any card with the help of kanban.showEditor(id): Code Snippet

As for the link itself, Webix does not provide any navigation pattern to help you achive this requirement.

But if you use Webix Jet in you application, you can send a paramater to the JetView that contains a Kanban widget. e.g. #!/top/kanban?id=1.

Then in the mentioned JetView, you can get this parameter from the url and pass it to the .showEditor() method:

$urlChange(){
  kanban.showEditor(this.getParam("id"));
}

Imagine, you send out mobile push notifications telling you that a specific card has changed its status. Wouldn’t you expect the link to guide you directly to that card? That’s what I mean with deep linking. We need a URL that directly opens up a special card by using that as a link.
