    Hi Viswanath,
     
    I don't have directly some x++ coding for you, but a solution direction. I hope this will be helpful. On the details view, you can go to the Options page on the action menu bar. There is an action Get a link. You can reverse engineer the coding behind this function. It is an option to create and browse to a deeplink that can be used when closing a dialog. 
     
    I created a slider dialog in the past and calling the Dynamics environment with some changes in the URL to change a session language. Probably some parts might be similar to your requirement. You can download the source code on my blog site: Session Language - Dynamicspedia

    Hi,
    To open a dialog form from a parent form, you can follow these steps:
    Create a Dialog Form:
    • Design and create the dialog form you want to open from the parent form.
    Parent Form Button Action:
    • Set up a button on the parent form with an action to open the dialog form.
    • In the button action method, use the dialog function to open the dialog form.
    • Pass parameters or context to the dialog form if necessary.
    Handle Dialog Form Closure:
    • Within the dialog form, handle the logic when closing the dialog. This could involve saving data or selecting a record.
    Redirect to Parent Detail Page:
    • After closing the dialog form, redirect to the parent form detail page using element.args() and passing the necessary parameters or context back to the parent form.
    Best regards,
    Kevin
