I need to create a link to an Opportunity. I get the Opportunity ID from the (REST) API.
I see regular links are
https://na85.lightning.force.com/lightning/r/Opportunity/xxxxxxxxxxx/view
But not sure if the user is using lightning or classic.
How to create a link that does not change between lightining or classic?

A link that will work in any environment is
https://<base domain name>/<Salesforce id>
You can use as your base domain name either your *.lightning.force.com
or your Classic domain name (mycompany.my.salesforce.com
or na85.salesforce.com
).
Salesforce will redirect the user to the appropriate URL for their logged-in experience. Users who are on the Lightning experience will see their browsers redirect through a URL including /_classic/
and then end up at the /r/sObjectName/sObjectId/view
URL.

+1https://login.salesforce.com/<id>
orhttps://test.salesforce.com/<id>
also automatically redirects them if already logged in to the appropriate location. If they have multiple saved logins, they can choose which one to use.
