Example 1:
When you want to go to a website, you can assign this action to a button as Open Link action and On Click event. The website URL can be typed in the Link field.
| The suffix https:// must be present before the typed link. |
When the button is clicked, the related website opens in the new tab of the internet window.
The website opens from the Client screen as follows.
Example 2:
When it is desired to go to the files in Uploads via link, we must fill the Link field as follows.
https://clienturl/Uploads/example.pdf
In our example, let's add a Text Box field to write the Uploads field in which the file is located. Then add a button and write our Goto URL action to this button.
| This is how our action will look like. Let's not forget to save the action with its own save button. |
Finally, when we save our form and run our project with the Run button, our screenshot will look like this. Let's type our URL in the Uploads Link field to go to our trial.pdf file in the Uploads folder.
Then when we click the button, our final image will be like this.
| In this usage, if you want the client url field to be hidden, you can type the field you want to hide by default in the Text Box tool and set this field to be invisible from the authorizations tab. In the Link property in the Goto Url action, we can type the Text Box field name and our file extension together, where we specify the client url address as hidden.
