Robert Davis 16 Javascript Button to Go to outside URL
I have a Javascript button in Lightning that needs to go out to SpringCM and pulls a form up that our users complete, it uses fields from the Opportunity that it pass through the URL. I am desperately trying to figure out how to do this and have tried the Trailhead Module: Lightning Alternatives to JavaScript Buttons and either it does not explain for my example or I am unable to understand. Can someone point me to any other solutions?
The Button is below:
Your help is greatly appreciated.
The Button is below:
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/10.0/connection.js")}
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/10.0/apex.js")}
//Should not have to change this at all
function getEOSInfo(objectid,objecttype,callback) {
var baseUrl = "{!$Api.Partner_Server_URL_260}".substring(0, "{!$Api.Partner_Server_URL_260}".indexOf("/services"));
var url = baseUrl +"/services/apexrest/SpringCMEos/eosinfo?objecttype="+objecttype+"&objectid="+objectid;
var authkey = "Bearer {!$Api.Session_ID}";
sforce.connection.remoteFunction({
url : url,
requestHeaders: {"Authorization":authkey,"Accept":"application/json"},
onSuccess : function(response) {
var eosInfoResponse = JSON.parse(response);
callback(eosInfoResponse);
}
});
}
//Here you write your own code, this is a simple call
var objectid = "{!Opportunity.Id}";
var objecttype = "Opportunity";
getEOSInfo(objectid,objecttype,function(eosInfo){
var formuid = "8be07531-XXXX-e611-XXXX-6c3be5a7XXXX";
var url = "https://XXX21.springcm.com/atlas/Forms/UpdateFormDoc.aspx?aid=9723&FormUid=" + formuid + "&SFFTE={!Opportunity.FTEs__c}&SFIND={!Account.Industry}&SFPSD={!Opportunity.ProgramStartDate__c}&SFID=" + eosInfo.SFId + "&SFNAME={!Opportunity.Name}&SFWF=ABC&SFCAFTYPE=CAAF&SFTYPE=Salesforce.Opportunity&SFPATH=" + eosInfo.FolderPath + "&ru=%2Fatlas%2Fbpm%2FWorkList.aspx";
window.open(url);
});
Your help is greatly appreciated.
- You would create a lightning component that would show the button on the record page.
- On click of the button you would call the Apex class
- You would send the opportunity recordId from the lightning component by using the force:hasRecordId (Refer this (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/ref_interfaces_force_hasrecordid.htm) link to know more about it)
- You can get all the variables that you require in the component's Apex controller(like session Id), you can also make rest calls from the Apex controller
- Once you have all the variables to create you URL you will return the url back to your component and use force:navigateToURL (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/ref_force_navigateToURL.htm) to navigate to the created URL.
Please note that window.open does not always work in Salesforce Lightning.Reply in case you face any challenge.
Hope this helps,
