Does anyone have an example of a workflow action script that opens up a custom URL?

your only choice is <https://system.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=section_4424988767.html|redirect.redirect>

if you wanted something that opens a new window, you probably want an actual script that can use <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open|Window.open>

Hey <@U5TF1GQ20> thank you! Do you know if window.open can be used in a workflow action script?

primarily because workflow action scripts run on the server

Do you know the best way to add a button to a record that opens a url? I was trying to use a workflow to add a button but sounds like that isn’t best. I’m okay with scripts if it isn’t too complicated.

user event script before record load to add the button?

Hey <@U5TF1GQ20> I went through those steps, the button is on the sales order but doesn’t open the url link. Wondering if you have any ideas why? debug isn’t stating anything either

Hey <@U5TF1GQ20> can I send over some code with a question?
