generateConsoleUrl()
Generates a URL to a tab, or group of related tabs,
in the Salesforce console. If any tabs
include external URLs, then add the external URLs to the console’s whitelist so
that they can display correctly. For more information, see “Whitelist Domains for a Salesforce Console” in the online help. This method is only available in API version 28.0 or
later.
