Link to some action of a different CRUD controller

Is there any workaround to link a new action, in a CRUD controller made with EasyAdmin 4.x , to an action in another CRUD controller with which it has a OneToMany relation ?

class FirstEntityCrudController extends AbstractCrudController
{
...
public function configureActions(Actions $actions): Actions
{
    return $actions
        ->add(Crud::PAGE_INDEX, Action::new('add-second-entity','Add a second entity')
        ->linkToCrudAction(Action::NEW ???)

            )
        ;
    }
}

The docs say that I can use:

linkToCrudAction(): to execute some method of the current CRUD controller;

But there seems to be no indication on how to "execute some method of a different CRUD controller".

Note: There is a sneaky way around it but it doesn't seem healthy :

   ->linkToUrl('the url to the desired action')

Following @Ruban's comment, and as EasyAdminBundle's docs mention, we can generate a URL for the desired action using the AdminUrlGenerator class as follow:

class FirstEntityCrudController extends AbstractCrudController
{
    private $adminUrlGenerator;

    public function __construct(AdminUrlGenerator $adminUrlGenerator)
    {
        $this->adminUrlGenerator = $adminUrlGenerator;
    }

    // ...

    public function configureActions(Actions $actions): Actions
    {
        // The magic happens here 👇
        $url = $this->adminUrlGenerator
            ->setController(SecondEntityCrudController::class)
            ->setAction(Action::NEW)
            ->generateUrl();

        return $actions
         // ->... 
            ->add(Crud::PAGE_INDEX, 
                  Action::new('add-second-entity', 'Add second entity')
                ->linkToUrl($url)
            );
    }
}

This worked for me.
