Can we open a Workspace page from UI Action

[Jefferson]

Hi all,

I've created an UI Action, setting up everything to work in Workspace, such as ticking the "Workspace Form Button" and "Format for Configurable Workspace" checkboxes.
This UI Action creates a record with default values, and I would like after creation to open this new record in another Workspace Page, basically routing the user to a different workspace page. To be more specific I would like to open this location "now/risk/risk/risk-assessment-main/{sys_id of the newly created record}".

Does anyone know if this can be done in the Workspace Client Script in the UI Action? Or do I need to use Declarative Actions or something else?

I've tried "g_aw.openRecord()", "action.setRedirectURL()", "g_navigation.open()", none of these worked.

Would appreciate any ideas.

Thanks

In Workspace client script, can you try using, open("yourURL"); This should work.

Please mark as helpful if it helps.

Oh that works, but it opens a new browser window. Do you know if I can set the target, such as "_self" or something similar so it opens on the same workspace window?

For those wondering adding '_self' after the url argument worked just fine.

open("yourURL","_self"); // Opens on the same browser tab.

Thank you @Dibyaratnam
