Using URL parameters in Experience Builder to open another Experience Builder application.

Question

I'm working with Experience Builder and want to be able to create a url parameter using the result of a query statement that will open another experience builder application and zoom to the extents of the url parameter.

Does anybody have an map example that they are willing to share?

Thank you

Hi Janet,

Zoom to a selected feature is now only partially supported in ExB. You will need both data_s and zoom_to_selection URL parameters to achieve what you're after. However, there are some limitations worth mentioning:

1. zoom_to_selection only works for select by id

2. zoom_to_selection only works for a single feature. If you select multiple features by id, the map will zoom to the first feature

3. If zoom_to_selection is not set or set to false, map will pan to features instead

zoom_to_selection is a new URL parameter released in June 2024. We're still on supporting the other two types/zoom to multiple features. If you only need to zoom to a single feature, it should be able to cover your case.
