How to trigger UI Action from Scheduled job script

sainath3 · ‎10-23-2023

Hi Team,

Below is the Requirement:

Auto trigger the UI Action button twice in a day, before business hours & after business hours.

Can anyone tell me how to trigger UI Action button from Scheduled job script?

UI Actions are meant to be triggered manually.
You would have to duplicate the code in the UI Action in your scheduled job.

Hello @sainath3 ,

UI Actions are typically used for user interactions on forms and lists, and may not be the best way to perform server-side operations like a scheduled job. It might be better to encapsulate the logic you need in a Script Include, which can be called both from a UI Action and a Scheduled Job.

If my response helps you resolve your issue. Kindly mark it as helpful & correct. It will be helpful to future readers!

Thanks and Regards,
Abhijeet Pawar.
