Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
In this question I asked how to create a menu icon pointing to a location, and that worked great many times.
However now I'm wondering if I can create such a link that will actually visit a specific filter in that page, instead of just giving me the default one.
Like I already have Shared and Favourite filters saved, I'd like to select one of those automatically in case I visit through that button (while keeping the Default intact if I visit normally through elsewhere).
Hii
Use filter_id in the URL
Go to your saved filter in Odoo (e.g., your "Shared" or "Favorite" filter).
Enable Developer Mode.
Look at the URL in your browser — you’ll see something like this when you select your filter:
/web#model=res.partner&view_type=list&filter_id=42
Copy that entire URL (with filter_id=...).
Use this URL in your menu item, button, or external link.
i hope it is use full
Hi, that's what I would have guessed, but the URL doesn't actually change it at all when I visit filters, it just stays clean with no `#` thingies.
Hii,
You’re right — Odoo’s UI doesn’t always update the URL with the filter state, so just copying the URL with filter_id might not work as expected.
How to reliably open a saved filter programmatically:
Find the filter ID:
Go to Settings > Technical > User Interface > Filters (enable Developer Mode first)
Search your filter by name (e.g., "Shared")
Note its numeric ID (say 42)
Use a URL with filter_id parameter explicitly:
The URL format is:
/web#action=<action_id>&model=<model_name>&view_type=list&filter_id=42
where <action_id> is the ID of the action attached to your menu (can be found in Settings > Technical > Actions > Window Actions).
This URL forces Odoo to load the view with that filter applied.
Oh thanks, that sounds promising! I'll try it as soon as I remember what I actually wanted to link back then :D
