How to sort the records in the portal like sorting in the list view?

Natahlie Nativi — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 01:47:11 GMT

In the portal, we are using the my_request widget displaying RITMs with columns for "created_on" and "updated_on" fields. We would like to know how to enable sorting of the records, similar to the list view, where clicking a column header sorts the records based on that column.

@yuvarajkate thank you for the video but the video uses a data table widget. In our sp we are using the oob my_request widget that shows the RITMs.

@Natahlie Nativi well in that case you can duplicate the widget, give it a different name and then can make changes in the widget editor. You will need to do some changes in the code side.

@Natahlie Nativi Yeah sure, will help you with the scripting part as much as I can. We can work here or else you can email me so that we can co ordinate there. In the mean time you can go through the video, it has the use case demonstrated in a very simpler way.
