Directly call create object page or RAP action from Tile

[AnmolBhatHD]

Dear Experts,

I have created a RAP based Fiori app and deployed it to my On Prem system.

Now, we want to have a Fiori tile for this app, which should directly open the app in create mode. 

Also other apps wants to have cross app navigation and open this app in create mode.

I tried this using parameters using IsActiveEntity=false and all other keys as empty but as this is draft inabled, it needs draftUUID. Hence the request gives error.

So, how do we set the fiori launchpad configuration to directly jump to create object page for the app with draft enabled.

Could you please help me to achieve this?

Hi,

I guess what you need is the preferredMode=create URL parameter as described in page. Do also see additional options with this in the V4 specific section in case you are using SAP Fiori elements for OData V4.

You can select "Form Entry Object Page" template when creating a Fiori elements application in Business Application Studio. With this, the app opens in create mode.

Thanks Mio for your reply. But that means I have to create 2 apps, 1 for general display and other for create.
