            Salesforce App URL Scheme Format

            You can use two different formats to make a request to a Salesforce URL scheme.

            For all actions, except viewing an object’s home page, use this format.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<id>/<action>

            To view the home page of an object, rather than a specific record, use the object’s name and the home action.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<ObjectName>/home

            Let’s break down each parameter of the URL scheme format.

            • scheme_name—A supported Salesforce scheme name.
            • sObject—Indicates a single instance of a Salesforce object.
              Note
              Note This parameter supports persisted data types besides sObjects, such as Apex. See An Introduction to Apex for more information.
            • id—The unique single instance of a Salesforce object, a specific record, referenced by ID. Salesforce object id lengths of both 15 and 18 characters are supported.
            • ObjectName—The API name of a Salesforce object. This value is case-sensitive. For example, use Account, not account.
            • action—A supported URL scheme operation.

            Scheme Names

            The Salesforce Mobile app supports the following values for scheme name in deep link URLs.

            • salesforce1://

            Actions

            The Salesforce Mobile app supports a number of different record- and object-specific actions in deep links.

            These are the available action parameters for URL schemes.

            • view—Navigates the user to the Salesforce app to view a record in detail.
            • edit—Navigates the user to the edit detail page of a record.
            • home—Navigates the user to the home page of an object.
            • download—Download any version of a file.
            • follow—Follow users to see their posts, comments, and likes in your feed.

            View a Record

            Use this URL scheme to view a record detail page.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<id>/view

            This example navigates to an Account record detail page: 

            salesforce1://sObject/001D000000Jwj9v/view
            Note
            Note The user must have permission to view the record.

            Edit a Record

            Use this URL scheme to edit a record.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<id>/edit

            This example navigates to an Opportunity record edit page.

            salesforce1://sObject/006R0000001r7Rq/edit
            Note
            Note The user must have permission to edit the record.

            Navigate to Record Home

            Use this URL scheme to navigate to the home page of an object.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<ObjectName>/home

            This example navigates to the Opportunity home page.

            salesforce1://sObject/Opportunity/home
            Note
            Note The ObjectName value is case-sensitive and requires the API name of the object.

            Download a File

            Use this URL scheme to view and save offline (download) a Salesforce file.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<id>/download

            This example navigates to a document and downloads it to save it offline. 

            salesforce1://sObject/069R00000000mr3/download
            Note
            Note The user must have permission to view or download the file.

            The download action only supports ContentDocument and ContentDocumentVersion objects.

            The download action for Android only opens the file, and doesn't save it offline.

            Follow a User

            Use this URL scheme to follow a user and navigate to their profile page.

            <scheme_name>://sObject/<id>/follow?userid=<target_user_id>

            The URL scheme navigates to the profile page if the user is already being followed.

            • ?userid=<target_user_id>: The target_user_id is the user ID of which the URL scheme link (for example, via email) to follow a user is sent to. Currently the Salesforce mobile app will only follow the target profile page if the <target_user_id> matches that of the current user.

            This example follows the target <userid> and navigates to their profile page.

            salesforce1://sObject/005R0000000Df5W/follow?userid=005R0000000HfcF
            Note
            Note The follow action only the supports User object.
