how to switch view from ui action

[jobin1]

Hi All,

How we can directly switch to a particular view from a ui action? Tried few scripts but not working as expected.

// Redirect to newly created record with view

        var url = '/u_email_client.do?sys_id=' + response + '&sysparm_view=genai_standardquery&sysparm_clear_stack=true';

        // window.top.location = url;

        g_navigation.open(url);

        //action.setRedirectURL(response);

        //g_navigation.openRecord('u_email_client', response, 'genai_standardquery');

        //g_navigation.openRecord('u_email_client', response, 'GenAI_StandardQuery');

        //g_navigation.openRecord('u_email_client', response, 'BPO_HRquery');

        //top.window.location = '/u_email_client.do?sys_id=' + response + '&sysparm_view=GenAI_StandardQuery';

    //  var url = new GlideURL(g_form.getTableName() + '.do');

    //     url.addParam('sys_id', g_form.getUniqueValue());

    //     url.addParam('sysparm_view', 'GenAI_StandardQuery');

    //     window.location.href = url.getURL();

        //action.setRedirectURL(current.getTableName() + '.do?sys_id=' + current.sys_id + '&sysparm_view=' + viewName + '&sysparm_view_forced=true');

        //var link ="u_email_client.do?sys_id="+response+"&sysparm_view=genai_standardquery";

Regards,
Jobin

where you require this? native or workspace?

UI action for view change, not a good way mate. Use OOTB way only and avoid technical debt.

Hello @jobin1 ,
Try this script and it only works for form button

var view_name = "default";
var tableName=current.getTableName();
var url = tableName + ".do?sys_id=" + current.sys_id + "&sysparm_userpref."+tableName+".view=" + view_name;

action.setRedirectURL(url);
