how to link a UI action to a dashboard?

[patricklatella]

hi community, 

is it possible to use a UI Action form button to link the user to a dashboard, and in the same window?

thanks!

those last 2 both direct to the dashboard, but inside the frame

WHat is embedded? Just removed it. Can we try with this. Sorry but I get a different link on address barso not able to reproduce

gs.setRedirect('uri=/$pa_dashboard.do?//dashboard=00701c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619ac&tab=8eb09c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619c2');

thanks Sanjiv, but it again links to the dashboard, but inside the split view frame like last screen shot.

Here's many a clue I'm working on...when I just go to the dashboard in my normal view, the URL in the browser is "https://xxxx.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=%2F$pa_dashboard.do"

anything we can pull from here to use?

Thats how it is for me.

Then when I open one of the dashboards, the link changes to 

https://xxx.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=%2F$pa_dashboard.do%3Fsysparm_dashboard%3D02874c6d3b400300b90c4bb534efc4f1

So I wanted to check, if you add this, what happens, assuming your dashboard id is 00701c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619ac

gs.setRedirect('uri=/$pa_dashboard.do?sysparm_dashboard=00701c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619ac');

ok, found something interesting:

your last one:

gs.setRedirect('uri=/$pa_dashboard.do?sysparm_dashboard=00701c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619ac'); //opens the correct dashboard, but in the frame as we've seen

but this one:

gs.setRedirect('/nav_to_do?uri=/$pa_dashboard.do?sysparm_dashboard=00701c67db6c1b803c6873e1ba9619ac'); //opens correctly to full screen, but opens the wrong dashboard??

odd right?  it's opening properly, but aiming at wrong dashboard, but that second one is opening to the full screen
