Can Application module link open record in popup modal?

[Adrian S_owi_sk]

Hi Everyone,

I am on Zurich and I have two questions regarding Application module links in Application Navigator:

1. Is it possible to set module link type t existing record and to open this record in popup/modal (similar to preview modal but with option to edit record). I just don't want record to be opened in same window or new tab. Instead I want to keep current page in background and display record in popup modal in the middle of the page.
2. is it also possible for Module link to run client or servers script from argument? What I am trying to achieve is that clicking Module link will directly update specific record without displaying it. Click on module link should change field value and save changes. I know I can select Link Type "Script" but there is confirmation page for these scripts asking if you want to run the script.
   
   Thank you.

Hi @Adrian S_owi_sk 

1. There is no out of the box module link type that opens a record form in a modal dialog.

2. Module type script intentionally shows a confirmation for safety. Removing that confirmation from a script type module is not supported and is a security risk. However, you can achieve a silent server side update via a controlled endpoint and then redirect.
