Hello,
I have a customer who wants users to receive notifications to approve documents in Laserfiche. Some users use the web client, others use the Windows client. So as part of the workflow, I'm sending an email to these users and including the document as a .lfe attachment, as well as including a link to the document in the web client.
However, the link just opens to the root level of the repository. I can see in the URL that it's referencing the document's entry ID, but it ultimately just opens the root level of the repository. The URL being generated looks like this: http://servername/laserfiche/Browse.aspx?db=RepoName%23id=819865%3Bview=pages
I've configured this workflow activity hundreds of times and can't remember ever encountering this behavior. Any insight into what I might be doing wrong? Web client version is 10.3.1.51 and workflow is 10.2.0.216
Thanks!

"Generate Laserfiche Web Client URLs" activity in Workflow is creating URLs that open to root level of repository

It looks like parts of the url are being incorrectly escaped. It should be something more like http://servername/laserfiche/Browse.aspx?db=RepoName&id=819865#view=pages. I don't have a guess for why it's not working correctly in this one case.
Try https://{servername}/WebLink/DocView.aspx?repo={yourreponame}&dbid={yourdbID#}&id={yourentryid}
replace the information in the brackets with your info. No brackets in the actual url.
Also, if you just go to one of the documents to see what the URL looks like you should be able to identify the variables.
If you mouse over the URL in the email in Outlook, does the tooltip show it with & or %23 after the repository name?
I don't use the activity in Workflow, I use the link above and just insert the variables that I need.
