When we click on the UI Action to open in a new Page

[Community Alums]

we have a ui action = "create change" with client callable unchecked

Below is the code script in ui actions

if( current.type == 'change' ){
  var resultAsObject = true;
  var demandUtil = new AjaxCreateRelatedEntityFromDemand();
  var changeObj = demandUtil.createChange(current.sys_id, resultAsObject);
  var changeId = changeObj.sys_id;
  var number = changeObj.number;
  var displayLabel = changeObj.label;
  var change;
  var message;
  var link;  

  if (changeId) {
    change = new GlideRecord('change_request');
    change.addQuery("sys_id", changeId);
    change.query();

    if(change.next()){
      link = ' <a href ="/change_request.do?sysparm_query=number%3D' + number + '">'+ number +'</a>';
      message = gs.getMessage("{0} {1} has been created");
      message = message.replace("{0}", displayLabel);
      message = message.replace("{1}", link);
      gs.addInfoMessage(message);
    }
  } else {
    message = gs.getMessage("Error creating {0}");
    message = message.replace("{0}", displayLabel);
    gs.addErrorMessage(message);
  }
  action.setRedirectURL(current);
}

below is the script include

createChange: function(demand_id, resultAsObject) {
            var demand;
            var change;
            var changeId;
            var changeNumber;
            var tableDisplayName;

            demand = this._getDemand(demand_id || this.getParameter('sysparm_sys_id'));
            if (!demand) {
                gs.log("Error creating demand");
                return;
            }

            change = new GlideRecord('change_request');
            change.initialize();
            change.setValue("short_description", demand.short_description);
            change.setValue("parent", demand.sys_id);
            change.setValue('sys_domain', demand.sys_domain);
            changeId = change.insert();
            changeNumber = change.getValue('number');
            tableDisplayName = change.getClassDisplayValue();

            //update demand with change details
            if (JSUtil.nil(demand.related_records))
                demand.related_records = changeId;
            else
                demand.related_records = demand.related_records + "," + changeId;

            demand.change = changeId;
            demand.state = '8';
            demand.stage = 'change';
            demand.update();

            if (new GlidePluginManager().isActive('com.snc.investment_planning_pmo')) {
                var invst = new InvstDemandConversion(demand, change);
                invst.updateExsistingInvestMentWhenDemandIsConverted();
            }

            return this._inExpectedFormat({
                'sys_id': changeId,
                'number': changeNumber,
                'label': tableDisplayName
            }, resultAsObject);
        },

It is working fine when you try to click on "create change" it is in the same page with the change created with some field pre populate

My requirement is same but when I click on "create change" it should open in a new tab with some fields pre populated

Hi @Community Alums 

in ServiceNow you cannot configure a button (UI Action) in a way that a new tab is opened when clicking on it. 

You only can open a new tab in client-side code, but your UI Action seems to be server-side only.

Hi @Maik Skoddow  
when we use only the below code in UI action it will work for the new record

function newTab(){

    g_navigation.open('/change_request.do?sys_id=-1', '_blank');

}
how can we configure in client script to achieve the requirement
