How to create a link to an Opportunity that does not specify lightning/non lightning?












1















I need to create a link to an Opportunity. I get the Opportunity ID from the (REST) API.



I see regular links are



https://na85.lightning.force.com/lightning/r/Opportunity/xxxxxxxxxxx/view


But not sure if the user is using lightning or classic.



How to create a link that does not change between lightining or classic?

A link that will work in any environment is



https://<base domain name>/<Salesforce id>


You can use as your base domain name either your *.lightning.force.com or your Classic domain name (mycompany.my.salesforce.com or na85.salesforce.com).



Salesforce will redirect the user to the appropriate URL for their logged-in experience. Users who are on the Lightning experience will see their browsers redirect through a URL including /_classic/ and then end up at the /r/sObjectName/sObjectId/view URL.
