I see it is now possible to get a path from the URL, but is it possible to navigate to a specific url path?

i.e. [app.bubbleapps.io/home/value](http://app.bubbleapps.io/home/value)

instead of [app.bubbleapps.io/home?key=value](http://app.bubbleapps.io/home?key=value)

Yes, you can then extract the “Value” from the URL when you get to “Home”.

Right. I understand you can extract the path from the url. But how about the other way around… navigating to the path.

From [app.bubbleapps.io/home](http://app.bubbleapps.io/home) can you navigate to [app.bubbleapps.io/home/value](http://app.bubbleapps.io/home/value) ?

Thanks in advance.

Is something like this what you’re looking to do?

It’s actually fairly simple to set up, so if something goes wrong it’s definitely my explanation of it that’s lacking, but I’ll walk you through it the best I can. I’ve also created a quick demo app so you can pick around any elements that aren’t fully clear from my explanation below.

Thanks for the link. After reading that post, I don’t understand what’s being accomplished. Although I’m a bit tired so I may have to look at it again tomorrow.

If you navigate around your Stripe dashboard you’ll see when you click on a menu item, the url path changes to that menu item’s title.

For example. If you click on “Customers” the url changes from [https://dashboard.stripe.com//dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com//dashboard) to [https://dashboard.stripe.com/customers](https://dashboard.stripe.com/customers)

It would make for a cleaner app if you could change the path. That way, when you navigate to another page, and then use the back button, the path would automatically show a specific part of an app (instead of states, when aren’t saved once a user leaves the page.)

Not a huge deal. I am just curious.

\*Edit: My apologies, I misunderstood your question. I don’t know how to set it up where the URL changes based on what is clicked, similar to Stripe.

Yes, Bubble doesn’t care about the “/value” if “home” is an actual page.

But to get it to do this you need to do “Open External Website” which is somewhat annoying.
