how to use navigateToURL in lightning

Hi,

I want navigate from lightning to apex visualforce page. And I used window.top.location and the page will be shown without sidebar.
How to use navigateToURL? I tried to use like below js but it doesn't work.
navigateTest: function(component, e, helper){
        $A.get("e.force:navigateToURL").setParams({"url": "/apex/test"}).fire();

    }

Does someone know this? Thanks a lot.

Hi ying,

Use like this:
  
navigateTest : function (component, event, helper) {
    var urlEvent = $A.get("e.force:navigateToURL");
    urlEvent.setParams({
      "url": "/apex/test"
    });
    urlEvent.fire();
}

Hi Pankaj,
Even i tried the above fix but get the following error :-

Something has gone wrong. Action failed: c$BookAppt$controller$bookAppt [TypeError: Cannot read property 'setParams' of undefined] Failing descriptor: {c$BookAppt$controller$bookAppt}. Please try again.

I have created a button component and from that component's controller calling the helper and within the helper calling the
$A.get("e.force:navigateToURL")
Let me know if any other fix is needed for this navitageToURL to work.

Hi All,

Please include below dependcy in your components:

    <aura:dependency resource="markup://force:navigateToURL" type="EVENT" /> 

I guess, it will fix the issue.

Thanks,
Ravindra.
