Hello Raju,

here are some questions and answers.

1. Can we write client side and Server Side code in UI Action? What is gsft in UI Action? How to right both Server side and client side code in UI action.

Anwer : Yes, we can. With the help of gsftSubmit we can achieve this. gsftSubmit() triggers the UI Action which is specified in the 3rd parameter, which is the action name/element id.

It is mostly used in UI actions that have a client side and a server side script. At the end of the client side script, you call gsftSubmit in order to trigger the UI Action again - this time running only the server side code.

Refer this blog for detailed explination.

2. How to control visibility of UI Action?

Answer: a.You can Control UI action visibility by role

             b. Control UI action visibility with views 

You need to have the conditions in the condition field box in UI action.

3. Type's of UI Action?

Answer: UI actions can be client side or server side or it can be both at same time

4. How can you send notification using UI action?

Answer: You can trigger notification from ui action by using gs.eventQueue().

5. How we can override existing UI action for specific table? how to Override global UI action ?

Answer:  I believe I have a solution. If the UI Action has current.canWrite() in the condition, then creating a security rule where the name is the name of the table and the field names is set to none, not * and then adding the appropriate role seems to work. Marking this as resolved.
