UI Action Button

[tzsabre]

I am creating a Client-side button that will take users to a URL in a tab when it is clicked. I am having two issues with this.  The first is the button is not doing anything, below I put the code that it is using. I have tried the method below and using window.open() and neither have worked for me.

The second is that the button does not appear in the Employee Center and is only appearing when I click Open in Platform.

Hi @tzsabre 

You can call the function in "Onclick" field on form instead of condition field.

Hello @tzsabre,

You have called openWindow() from the condition, You have to call it from Onclick. Please find below screenshot

You can also write openPopup() as below

g_navigation.openPopup(url, "Google", 'resizable,scrollbars,status');
// Google is name of window
// resizable, scrollbars, status are features of window

Please mark my answer helpful, if it helps you

Thank you

@tzsabre 

the script looks good and it will work only in native.

It won't work in portal since client side UI actions don't work in portal.

You can make the UI action as server side and redirect using this

action.setRedirectURL(url);

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
