Is there way when we click on a!startProcessLink() it opens in a different tab rather than the same tab?
I can do right click and open in new tab and it works. But i want to do this automatically on click of the link.

Hello ,
Is there a way to implement this in Appian sites ? Currently new tab in the browser opens in tempo as we have configured Temp on the uri . I tried to configure in sites ,but no luck. Is there a way to configure to open in new tab when using application in Appian sites . Something like https://[Appian Site URL].appiancloud.com/suite/sites/[application-name].
Thank you.
You can use Safelink and in that you can provide the url to which you want to navigate.
I tried using safelink , but looks like we can open new tab in Tempo ,if configured in Sites ( I mean application hosted using Sites --> suite/sites/ ) ,I am getting access denied error .
Can you use a record action instead of a start process link? The record action contains a property for "openActionsIn" that allows you to designate whether to open in a new tab, same tab, or dialog. If you do this, it will work within your site rather than opening in Tempo.
Also just a general suggestion - I'd recommend creating a new post in the future rather than adding to an existing thread. In 4 years a lot of things change so there are often new ways to achieve functionality that could be better served with a new post
Hi Peter,
Thank you for the heads up on the record action.

As an aside, i think it was a bit of an oversight / feature incompleteness issue that [some of] the other link components were updated with launch target overrides (which is great) but a!startProcessLink() was passed over. Especially considering that with enough (unreasonably work-aroundish) effort, someone could set up arbitrary links anyway using the Record Action link as you mentioned - of course this would require staging a dummy record type, a dummy action, etc - and for what gain?
It's a fair point - how often would you say that you have an action that isn't associated with a record in some way though?

I don't know whether that's a fair metric by which to judge whether a!startProcessLink()'s lack of a "new_tab" launch target is actually a "feature incompleteness" issue.
But I'll go ahead and say I use it fairly often and (without having an easy way to tally retrospectively of course) i'd roughly estimate that maybe 75% of my use cases are relevant to data that doesn't concern any specific entry in one of the (relatively few) DB tables we have set up as Record Types.
Hi,
Is there a way to close the New Tab opened in web browser after the process completion ?
Thanks,
Priyanka

Nope, sorry.
