вам необходимо создать рабочий процесс вручную и использовать URL-адрес рабочего процесса вручную в поле

this only works for admin, users cannot start the workflow from the link, error
WARNING: (403) No access to 'Workflow'

It’s using the standard fontawesome icons.

Uploading an icon may be tricky, maybe adding an attachment id as icon could be a good workaround.

I’ll think about it

I might have a suggestion for improvement.
If that is desired, of course.
Could it perhaps be programmed so that you could upload your own icons?
The idea behind it:
I just had the idea that you could set this up as a WhatsApp button or something similar for contacts, for example.
It already works without a label, so that only the icon is displayed.
Unfortunately, the icon selection does not include WhatsApp.
What do you think of this idea?

[ChrisSka83]

It's actually very easy.
Create a button in the desired entity, here as an example "view".
Activate Hide Label & Mode "Open Espo Modal"
Customize the rest according to your wishes.

Enter the following formula under Formulas:
view=string\concatenate('https://Path to espoCRM/#Lead/view/',entity\attribute('id'));

Then simply insert this button in the list layout.
Either after saving an entry or in the list view "Execute formula", the link is then stored in the button.

If there is no link in the button, the button will not appear.
That's it.

I also like the option of adding a button to the list view.
This allows you to display the entry in a modal without having to go into the detailed view.
To do this, I simply use a formula to automatically set the link to the button.

Can you share the formula and steps with us, please?

[Kharg]

Yes, this was the intended use case

Glad it's helping you
