Sitemap Designer Sub Area URL Type not working

Posted on by Christopher Grace

Microsoft Docs describes how you can set an apps sub-area link to open a specific entity view. I can create the Sub Area item, set the Type to URL, specify the URL like so

 Url=“/_root/homepage.aspx?etn=<entity logical name >&amp;viewid=%7b<GUID value of view id>%7d”

and check the Parameter Passing checkbox.  But after I publish, the Sub Area does not appear in the UI.

I've spent hours trying all sorts of variations.  Sometimes I can get the Sub Area to appear, sometimes I can get it to open a new page that shows an error message.  I tried adding a Description in the designer, but that repeatedly clears itself.  Argh, help.

Hey.

You need to use the following format:

/main.aspx?pagetype=entitylist&etn=ENTITYNAME&viewid={GUID}
