If you know the url of the ess application you can either use link to action UI element and use absolute navigate method to swich to the ESS Main page.

WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute()

Hi,

Normaly the path from the pcd starts with ROLES://portal_content/

So i am not sure how to use this as part of the link to url, thats is the reason why i suggested to go for link to action.

One more thing you can try to get the URL is go the PCD and do a preview of your page that you want to show on click of the url, if that meets your request you can use that.
