Pathfinder (LWC)

An LWR-compatible Flow Local Action that enables navigation from Screen Flows in both Lightning Experience (LEX) and Experience Cloud (LWR) sites.

Credit: Pathfinder is a ground-up LWC rebuild of the Navigate Everywhere Aura component by UnofficialSF. Navigate Everywhere does not work in LWR Digital Experience sites because LWR only renders Lightning Web Components. Pathfinder solves this by using pure LWC APIs and the NavigationMixin for cross-container compatibility.

What It Does

Pathfinder lets Flow builders navigate users to any Salesforce page, record, URL, or app from within a Screen Flow — without writing code. It supports 9 destination types and works across both LEX and LWR containers.

Destination Type	LEX	LWR
object	Yes	Yes
record	Yes	Partial (view only)
url	Yes	Yes
app	Yes	No
namedpage	Yes	Yes
experiencepage	No	Yes
tab	Yes	No
knowledge	Yes	Yes
relatedlist	Yes	Yes
