Generating absolute url for BO

[wakabayashi]

I wondered, how it's possible to generate absolute urls for the backoffice? I know ofc, that I could hardcode this, but what would be the correct way of doing it?

The goal is something like: https://www.domain.com/admin2389/index.php?controller=AdminDashboard (basically the "admin2389" part is unclear to me)

I need this to take actions from a link in an email, that was sent to the admin. Is there any risk invovled @datakick?

Oh I just found a function called "basename()". Never heard of it before. With that it's pretty straightforward:

$link->getBaseLink().basename(_PS_ADMIN_DIR_).'/'.$link->getAdminLink('AdminDashboard', false)

Yep, this would work for simple urls without any parameters.

For urls with parameters (https://www.domain.com/admin2389/index.php?controller=AdminDashboard&param1=something&param2=other&token=tokenvalue) you would have to include token into the url. Tokens are employee specific, so you would have to know upfront which employee will be opening this url.
