Apologies if this is a simple question:

I want to send someone a url so that they can edit an item in a table (view) so something like /index.php/?option=com_xyz&view=abc&layout=def&id=10

However, I want to identify the record using another field instead of "id". Can I specify another key instead "id" without forking and coding it? It looks to me is if id is hard coded in orm but I may well have missed it.

Thanks for your help!

Hello.

For me, it is not possible to send a link without the id of your item. rewriting the address does only change the url into the browser. you always need the id of your element to access the page.
the better solution for me is to create a redirect page like this :
window.location.replace("index.php/?option=com_xyz&view=abc&layout=def&id=10");

the joomla SEO setting can hide the url of your item

  I found "cook" two days ago. Played around with it for a day and then within a day got rid of two legacy applications in IBM Lotus Domino Notes and replaced them with "cook". It was really easy. A piece of cake. Actually it was even easier than cooking. Cooking involves more work than developing with "cook". What can I say about "cook"? Great application great price for what it delivers great forum with a lot of information and fast responses active and friendly community fast forward moving development cycle So what should I say "Monsieur Le Cook"? Keep the good work going it will lead to success. Having become a paying member in the words of Edith Piaf may I say ..... non rien de rien ... je ne regrette rien. Vive La France.
