Why do you need to completely reconstruct it? When your app is ready and you want to have links to just different “rows” of the same data, you can get one link manually, and then no matter what t and s will be(just use the same) change “r” (that stands for RowID), encode with base64 and you are good to go. Re “t”: it’s just an internal autoincrement number for app tabs. It might be first in the menu, but you deleted some or reordered them. For example, I have t: “12” but it’s first in the tab bar. But I know for sure that I had a lot of tabs before. ---

> Re “t”: it’s just an internal autoincrement number for app tabs. It might be first in the menu, but you deleted some or reordered them. The problem is, that I have seen that links to a certain tab didn’t work any more and if I created new ones, the only difference was the “t” value. So if this value changes without notice all existing links are broke! ---

Anyway, Glide doesn’t allow us to have normal link generation, so we have to “invent the wheel” and spend a lot of time on such things. ---

E.g., right now, I deal with the following: I send push notifications about essential order changes to Telegram but have to resolve how to open the app for exact order. So I am developing this base64 link generation using RowID and hope it will work. ---

Hello ThinhDinh! Could you explain please how you get this decoding text? I am trying to solve the issue also, but is no familiar with encodibg\decodibg. I use ([Unicode Converter - Encode Decode UTF Text Base64 - ConvertCodes](https://convertcodes.com/unicode-converter-encode-decode-utf/)), attempting to make the link to the same row, but in another tab. Thank you very much! ---

Hi Maxim! How does it work this your hopefully deal? ---

I have tried to find an API that can encode things automatically, but haven’t succeeded in doing so. I believe the last time I checked, it is a UTF-16 LE encoding. You can decode manually using a service like this: > **[Base64 Decode and Encode - Online](https://www.base64decode.org/)** > > Decode from Base64 format or encode into it with various advanced options. Our site has an easy to use online tool to convert your data. ---

Is your use case to generate a deep link that is the same as Glide? ---

Hi ThinhDinh! I need to generate a deep link in Glide Pro App using Glide tables to send invitation for User from one Tab by Admin to the same record but from another Tab. And thank you very much, your link helps me well. Just handmade yet(, hope someday we will found a way to do it by automatically by some API. ---

Does it have to be generated and sent right when the record is created? ---

If you do it by a form, I assume you can do a “show details screen” of the row you just added, then set the “link to current screen” to a column in your database. Would that work? ---
