Passing id parameter in New action

Question

I have a org with lightning experince is enabled. In that, i have overridden New action of a object with visualforce page.

I was passing id value into that new action as below,

Pagereference pRef = new PageReference('https://' + getFinalUrl() +'.lightning.force.com/one/one.app?isdtp=p1#/sObject/' + opp.Id + '/new');

Then in the overridden page i could able to grab id as below,

String rId = (ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().containsKey('id')) ? ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id') : null;

But from Spring 17', ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters() doesn't contain id parameter (for new page overrides).

How can i solve this issue ? I just need to pass id value from one visualfore page to another in lightning experince.

From Spring 17 release notes:

Changes to the order of Visualforce page URL parameters can affect your Visualforce overrides. If you use a Visualforce page to override an action without encoding the parameter’s value, your users encounter an error when trying to take that action.

So you should encode your URL before returning it.

String encoded = EncodingUtil.urlEncode(url, 'UTF-8');

In your case, it should be something like this:

String url = 'https://' + getFinalUrl() +'.lightning.force.com/one/one.app?isdtp=p1#/sObject/' + opp.Id + '/new';
String encoded = EncodingUtil.urlEncode(url, 'UTF-8');
Pagereference pRef = new PageReference(encoded);
return pRef;
