Hyperlink to My InBasket

I would like to make a hyperlink to My InBasket, something like this: <a href="'ArasServerUrl/.../default.aspx InBasket</a> What is the URL for My InBasket? Is there any documentation I can read on how to create hyperlinks to different locations inside Aras? I want the URL to work even if the user does not have My InBasket as starting page.
InBasket

    A simple solution to the problem on the lines of answer suggested by Eli, Following URL should take a user to his inbasket on login to Aras. http://[ServerName]/[WebAlias]/Client/default.aspx?StartItem=inbasket

    I realize that this is not a solution to your specific problem, but are you aware that you can configure a user's start page from the user record? If workflow voting is a user's primary focus, then you could configure that user's start page to be the InBasket. Dennis

    Thanks for the reply Eli Donahue. It's too bad it does not seem possible to link to certain parts inside Aras, especially common places such as MyInbasket. In my User Notification Email I will link to the item and instruct the user how to reach MyInbasket.

    Hi Denchy, I don't know of any way to directly link to a specific grid or TOC category in Aras, but it is possible to link to an item instance. This KnowledgeBase article shows how to do it in a Workflow or LifeCycle notification email: http://community.aras.com/en/knowledgebase/email-message-item-hyperlink/ Here's the general syntax: 
    http://[ServerName]/[WebAlias]/default.aspx?StartItem=[ItemType]:[ItemID]

      Hi Eli,

      For some reason, the link in the above answer is not working anymore. (It brings up a search, but not pointing to the specific article)

      Could you please supply the updated link?

      Regards,

      Frank
