Redirect page from UI action

[Jolanta Jaskele]

Hello,

I try to redirect from backend to portal in the same page by using:

window.location.href = 'url';

and I get redirected like this:

Is there a way to redirect it without backend navigator and etc? It has to be the same tab

@Jolanta Jaskelevičiūtė so the issue is in your widget this is redirecting you in the same page in cluding left navigator which should not happen right ?

Hi there,

To load just the main frame without the nav_to refreshing:

var frame = top.document.getElementById('gsft_main'); // we will only reload the main frame
frame.src =  'YOUR_INSTANCE_NAME.service-now.com/srcm?id=form_tabbed_contract&table=ast_contract&sys_id=' + g_form.getUniqueValue();  

// redirect frame without the need to refresh nav_to. Give this the full URL of the page you want to redirect to (not including the nav_to)



 

Try that, hopefully it helps 🙂

Thanks for your help :), but unfortunately, I get the same result

Hmm, I think I misunderstood, so you just want the whole page to reload to the portal without the nav bar?

Try this:

window.top.location.href = url

The key difference here is that we are now reloading the TOP frame as opposed to just the gsft frame.
