Use $state.transitionTo
to go form one state to another. This is a low level method to transition and $state.go
is the recommended way for most common use cases as it uses this method internally.
$state.transitionTo(toState [, toParams] [, options])
toState - the state to transition to
toParams (optional) - a map of parameters to send the target state
options (optional) - the state transition options
Examples:
$state.transitionTo("dashboard.history", {period: "week"})
// transitions to the history child state with a state parameter
