Is there a reason why the Share Link \> Link to Current Screen action doesn’t work for tabs? We’re using share links for all of our detail screens successfully but, even after adding a Row ID column to the tab’s Glide table, the same Share Link action for the tab only takes users to the app’s Home screen. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

NOTE: While the tab we’re trying to link to is located in the app’s hamburger menu, we also created a visible tab outside the menu and re-tested without any luck.

Unfortunately, tabs don’t have their own deep link…only details screens of those tabs.

Hi, @Robert_Petitto. That’s what I was afraid of, so I’ll begin working on a workaround. I appreciate you taking time to weigh in. Thanks!
