UI Action to open newly created record in new tab

[gtk]

Hi Team,

on an incident form we have a UI action  - create problem, when create a problem is used a problem will be created with an incident as a reference to it

 now we want to open the newly created problem in the next tab of the browser (one tab with the incident and another tab with problem refer to the incident)

any help appreciated

You have to use client side script in UI Action to open the record in new tab. 

Create one Client callable script include and add your script there and then use glide ajax to call the client side script include. 

then you will use below line.

g_navigation.open("problem.do?sys_id="+answer, "_blank");

There is OOTB UI Action "Create Problem" on incident table , i have deactivated the ootb one and created new UI Action. 

Sample Code:

UI Action Code:

function getprblm(){

	var ga = new GlideAjax('createProb');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'cprob');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_user_name', g_form.getUniqueValue());
	ga.getXML(HelloWorldParse);

	function HelloWorldParse(response) {
		var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
		g_form.setValue('problem_id',answer);
		g_navigation.open("problem.do?sys_id="+answer, "_blank");
		g_form.save();

	}

}

Script Include:

var createProb = Class.create();
createProb.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

	cprob: function(){

		var id = this.getParameter('sysparm_user_name');
		var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
		gr.get(id);
		var prob = new IncidentUtils().getProblemFromIncident(gr);
		
		if(prob != undefined) {
			var mySysid = prob.insert();
			return mySysid;
		}
	},

	type: 'createProb'
});

Hope it will help you. 

If my answer helped you, kindly mark it as correct.

@gtk 

if you are using server side script then it is not possible to open in new tab

If you are using client side script then script shared by Harshvardhan should work
