I achieved this.. I set the url variable in taskBean conditionally. For that i need to know the transition name..so this is what i did Set a action commandlink based on what is clicked..this action method in taskBean sets the transition name..I pass the transition name using setPropertyActionListener method.. <h:commandLink id="transition#{rid}" style="display:none; visibility: hidden;" action="#{taskBean.action}"> | | <f:setPropertyActionListener target="#{taskBean.transitionName}" value="#{transition.name}" /> | </h:commandLink> URL is the variable in my taskBean class..and I retrieve it using: <n:nav outcome="success" url= "#{taskBean.url}" storeMessages="true"/> View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4251718#...
