Can this code be modified to open the Record in Edit mode?

This code works to open the new Record that was created by a Flow, but I want the Record to open in Edit mode.  Is it possible to modify this code so it opens the new Record in Edit mode? 
({

	invoke : function(component, event, helper) {
    	var args = event.getParam("arguments");
        
        
        var destObject = component.get("v.SObject");
        var navEvt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToSObject");
        navEvt.setParams({
          "recordId": destObject,
          "slideDevName": "related"
        });
        navEvt.fire();
     
}
     
 })

Hi,

Given that destObject is just a recordId and not the entire object. 
editRecord : function(component, event, helper) {
    var destObject = component.get("v.SObject");
    var editRecordEvent = $A.get("e.force:editRecord");
    editRecordEvent.setParams({
         "recordId": destObject
   });
    editRecordEvent.fire();
}

Alain,
Thanks.  This looks promising.  I'm not a coder, so I don't understand exactly what I'm doing.  I substituted the code you gave me, but maybe I didn't do it correctly.  I'm getting a Field Integrity Exception error about the "(" in the editRecord command:  Failed to save OpenSObjectController.js: ESLINT_ERROR: {c:OpenSObject - CONTROLLER} line:col [14:22] --> Parsing error: Unexpected token ( : Source . Can you tell what I did wrong?  Thanks for your help.

editRecord : function(component, event, helper) {
    var destObject = component.get("v.SObject");
    var editRecordEvent = $A.get("e.force:editRecord");
    editRecordEvent.setParams({
         "recordId": destObject
   });
    editRecordEvent.fire();


}
}
     
 })

Hi,

You should post the code of your controller and your component.

var destObject = component.get("v.SObject");
....
 editRecordEvent.setParams({   "recordId": destObject  });   "recordId": destObject is suspect.   We rarely do that.

We get the recordId like that most of the time:

var recordId =  component.get("v.recordId")  
...
 editRecordEvent.setParams({  "recordId": recordId   });

Alain,
Thanks!  It is a Lightning Component.  This is all of the information I have for the Component.  I use it in Flows.  It is available as a local action. 
Controller:
 ({

	invoke : function(component, event, helper) {
    	var args = event.getParam("arguments");
        
        
        var destObject = component.get("v.SObject");
        var navEvt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToSObject");
        navEvt.setParams({
          "recordId": destObject,
          "slideDevName": "related"
        });
        navEvt.fire();

     
}
     
 })
  
Component:
<aura:component implements="lightning:availableForFlowActions">
	<aura:attribute name="SObject" type="String" required="true"/>
</aura:component>

Design:
<design:component >
	<design:attribute name="SObject" />
</design:component>
