Redirect back to the Quickbase app

Prev Next

This article explains how to redirect back to the Quickbase app after executing an extension.

Update as of 6/17/2020

We have made some changes to one of our extensions, QB Signatures, to be able to navigate back to the record in the Quickbase app after saving the signature.

We will be updating this page with the list of extensions that support this redirect functionality from the Quickbase mobile app.

Note

This works only for iOS users (iPhone and iPad).

For Android users, we display a message instructing you to close the browser manually and open the Quickbase app.

Follow these steps:

  • After you have successfully removed the JavaScript code from the button formula, please add the new parameter rdr.

  • Please make sure to add this new rdr parameter to redirect back to the record in the Quickbase mobile (native) app.

  • The formula for the new parameter should look like this:

      & "&rdr="& Base64Encode(URLRoot() &"/db/" & Dbid() & "?a=dr&rid=" &[Record ID#])

  • Once you add the new rdr parameter, the formula should look like this:
