Hi @Sai kumar123 ,

Add this code within your UI Action,

action.setRedirectURL(current);
setTimeout(function() {
window.$j(document).scrollTop(document.body.scrollHeight);
}, 500);

Additionally, you can check the below link:

Hi kaushal, i had implemented the code and also researched but nothing worked there and as we all know DOM Manipulations are not advisable , i had came up with an alternative in my mind lets hope it works, anyway thank you for suggesting.

I don't think this is possible without DOM manipulation and DOM is not recommended practice.

Also I believe it's not a good user experience to take user directly down after auto scrolling.
