Navigation through URL parameters

A more advanced way of navigating is to use URL parameters. These have two distinct advantages over custom states:

a) when you use url parameters, you still navigate by the URL even if you do not seem to leave the page. This means you build up a breadcrumb trail and can go back and forth in the browser to go to a previous page.

B) you can append parameters to your URL's that can interact with your page as you navigate. You can add a URL parameter in a link in your emails to navigate to the right section of your page for example.

In general passing data along in URL parameters is a common practice and very versatile.

Navigation action can refer to the text on the ❖ Section Users we set. The workflow will look like this:

Additionally, you can use extra parameters such as 'tab' to create a sub-navigation. Or UID if you are working with data (read more about this in this section).

You can also use more advanced practice such as using Option set to navigate. You can read about it in the next section.
