Webflow: it's possible to switch between flows? - grails

Question

I have two controllers and each one have a flow. In my menu I have a link to the flows. If I'm in flow #1 and click in the link of the flow #2, Grails will show me the view of the flow #1.
The only way I found to make this transition work was to have a link to an action that redirects to the flow.
class FirstController {
def firstFlow = {
}
def toFirst() {
redirect action: 'first'
}
}
class SecondController {
def secondFlow = {
}
def toSecond() {
redirect action: 'second'
}
}
Going to /first/first shows the view correctly.
Going to /second/second shows the view of first.
Going to /second/toSecond redirects and show the view correctly.
Backing to /first/first shows the view of second
Goingo to /first/toFisrt shows the view correctly.
Is this a expected behavior? Why the flow don't go to the correct view?
EDIT
The menu is created using Platform Core Navigation API.
navigation = {
app {
first(controller: 'first', action: 'first', title: 'nav.exportar')
second(controller: 'second', action: 'second', title: 'nav.importar')
}
}

Answer 1

If we want to cease a flow process (like clicking menu), we need to tell webflow end-state.
so the menu link url should include eventId parameter that means end-state.
I don't know navigation api, but g:link example below:
<g:if test="${params.action=='first'}"><%-- we are in first flow. --%>
<g:link event="toSecond">Go to second</g:link>
</g:if>
<g:else><%-- we are not in first flow, normal link. --%>
<g:link controller="second" action="second">Go to second</g:link>
</g:else>
and first controller:
class FirstController {
def firstFlow = {
// view-state
firstViewState {
on('next').to 'nextAction'
on('toSecond').to 'toSecond' // <g:link event='toSecond'> in gsp
}
// end-state
toSecond() {
redirect (controller:'second', action:'second')
}
}
def toFirst() {
redirect action: 'first'
}
}
