Redirect on Add Record API

Hi Mike,
For the end of your button do you have any part of the call that is designating a nextURL or a redirect?

I'm chiming in here and hoping for some suggestions. I'm using the following to call do save on a submit button, but I want to redirect to another website.
"<a class= 'Vibrant Success' onclick='DoSave()' href='#https://anywebsite.com'>Click here to submit</a>"
First: from the web experience, it saves the new record but does not redirect to the specified web page. Instead it goes to the UI page I have pointed to on the EOTI group. I don't like this because it appears to introduce an opportunity to hack security in the database. How can I bypass the default group page and redirect to my website?
Second: the mobile version shows the native Save & Cancel buttons, and does not redirect anywhere. I would rather just avoid the mobile version and somehow request a desktop site instead. Is this doable from the original link used to access this EOTI form?

You can go to the Advanced Properties of the app and there is a setting there to force the desktop mode.
I think that the most reliable way to redirect on save (in desktop mode only) is to specify that in the original link to add the record.
like this
var text ADD = your url here to add a a record ;
var text Redirect = you URL here to redirect to.;
$URL
& "&NextURL=" & URLEncode($Redirect)

------------------------------- Thanks Mark, but please forgive my ignorance. I am so new to html I don't even know how to spell URL!
Based on the anchor attribute I put in my first post, where am I supposed to put the code you gave me?
