Does anyone know if it's possible to set the owner when creating a new record via url hacking?

I am attempting to create a custom url button that will create a lead from a case with some information, pre-populated. I'm getting stuck with trying to set the owner of this new lead to a queue.

I believe I've found the lead owner field ID is "lea1" and I've tried a number of different combinations of lea1=OWNERID, lea1=OWNERNAME, lea1_lkid=OWNERID but nothing works.

  • I don't think that's possible. Can't you just use a workflow rule for that?

  • I can create a workflow, it's just an issue that I've run into a few times and haven't been able to find much info about it. Thanks

It is not possible to set the owner using url hacking. I'm pretty sure that the default owner is always the current user.

You can create a workflow rule to change the owner when the record is saved.
