Opening URL on same window / Tab in Mobile Interface?

[vineetk]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to redirect a URL by using action.serRedirectURL(url);

But when I use this function in UI action it redirects me to the specified URL but into a new window / Tab and not in the same window.

I want, it to open in same window / tab.

Please let me know your suggestions on same.

Thank You

Hi Berny,

But, if I am not wrong is it possible to have UI Action of client type in case of Mobile UI Actions?

Also, "new_record" how this works, do I have to write a code which redirects via GlideRecord..?

Thanks

Hi Berny,

Actually I am using the below code for redirecting:

action.sendRedirectURL("https://<instance-name>/$m.do#/form/sc_req_item/"_current.sysapproval.sys_id);

i.e. trying to redirect to the current record from list of records under "My Approvals".

Please let me know your observations on same.

Thank You

Hi All,

I have tried the client version of UI Action as well.

I have actually created a UI Action on "sc_req_item" form and have written the following code:

client check box: true

Onclick: RevertbackApp()

script:

function RevertbackApp()

{

    window.open("https://<instance-name>/$m.do#/form/sc_req_item/"+current.sys_id+"/sysparm_view=Mobile","_self");

}

And I have made this UI Action to be visible on Mobile View on "sc_req_item" form as well.

But the problem is I am not getting the UI Action on Mobile interface.

Please provide your suggestions on same.

Thank You

Regards

Hello Everyone,

Got the reason why I was getting redirected to new tab / window.

Earlier I was using the below url for redirecting:

var url = "https://<instance-name>/$m.do#/form/sc_req_item/"+current.sys_id+"/sysparm_view=Mobile";

action.setRedirectURL(url);

But instead, have to use the URL in the following form and which helped me to redirect on the same tab / window.

var url = "#/form/sc_req_item/"+current.sys_id+"/sysparm_view=Mobile";

action.setRedirectURL(url);

i.e. just the url from "#/form" excluding the <instance-name> part.

Thank you
