UI Action script (client side) to save record & close the current window.

[Ankita Kolhe]

Hi Community,

I have a 'Save & Close' UI Action to save the record & close the current window.

However below code is not working:-

g_form.save();

window.close();

Could anyone please help with the same?

Any response will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ankita

Can you try this:

var myWindow = window.location.href

myWindow.close()

@Ankita Kolhe Create UI action as below.  No need to include onClick function. I tested on incident table and it works.

Keep in mind that the ability to close a browser window from a script may be restricted due to browser security settings. In many modern browsers, pop-ups can only be closed directly if they were opened by the script itself.

Additionally, it is important to use this with caution, as closing a window without the user's permission can be intrusive and is not considered best practice in many scenarios.

Why was this solution used? Maybe we can find an alternative.

If necessary, try using this code:

var currentWindow = window.self;
currentWindow.opener = window.self;
currentWindow.close();
