Can a Skuid tab page coexist alongside an existing Salesforce tab for the same object?

There are two ways to link to specific record pages.

  1. Add the Record ID to the end of the domain url. As in https://skuidify.my.salesforce.com/RecordIDNumber
    When salesforce sees this syntax they look at the override definition for the “View Action” on that object and send you to the correct standard layout or visualforce override page.

  2. Add the Record ID as a URL parameter to a specific page url. As in

https://skuidify.my.salesforce.com/apex/skuid__ui?page=ContactDemoDetail_TAGS&id=RecordIDNumber

This takes the user to a specific skuid page - without running the override processing.

You can combine these two methods ( or have multiple versions of method 2) in order to let users get to different versions of the same detail record page.

You can add links of type 2 as custom buttons on standard layouts, or add forumula fields that build URLs of that type so you can display them in a list view.

Or even better… You can build your list in Skuid where you show summary information about each record and then in the first column you can include a template where you have multiple links to detail pages. The html for that would look somthing like this:

<b>{{{Name}}}</b> 
 <a href = "/{{{Id}}}">Regular Override Link</a>
 <a href ="/apex/skuid__ui?page=SkuidAccountDetailPage&amp;id={{{Id}}}">Skuid Detail LInk</a>

This would look like this:

Lots of possibilities.
