    Posted Sat May 21, 2022 10:51 AM
    Hi,

    Is there a way to invoke external URL like google.com from automation script or is there a way to invoke launch in context from automation script ? 
    Thanks in advance.

    If you're only trying to open a new tab to a website, utilize an ACTION launch point automation script with either a push button or select action menu option and have this as your script:

    service.openURL("https://google.com",True)

    That will cause google.com to open in a new tab. You can't interact with the page after and the rest of your script would fire immediately. The script doesn't wait for them to close the page for example.

    That second parameter technically is supposed to indicate whether it should open in a new window based on the name but it doesn't seem to work. There's a concept called launch in context in Maximo that does allow you to control whether it's the same window or new tab and I imagine there's a way to do something like it. I haven't done it though (outside of launch in context) so I don't have it documented as to how to do it.

    Hi Prashanth,

    there is a way to open URL in the same window in Java and it should also work in automation script:

    wcs = service.webclientsession()
wcs.gotoApplink("https://google.com")
