  • 1.  Automation Scripts: Java methods that interact with the UI

    It's my understanding that the new Java methods in recent versions of Maximo have been a game changer for a lot of Maximo devs. Using automation scripts, we can now interact with the UI:
     - In 7.6.1.1, we got a new method: UIContext.getWebClientSession()
     - In 7.6.1.2, we have ScriptService.launchDialog()  and ScriptService.openURL()
     - And there is a method from older versions of Maximo that can be used to open a dialog from MBO launch points: Utility().sendEvent(WebClientEvent("status", c.getCurrentPageId(), None, SessionContext(c)))


    Question:

    Is there any other functionality that we should ask IBM for when it comes to interacting with the UI? 
     1. For example, if we pop up a custom dialog via an automation script, is there anything else that want to do via autoscripts that we can't do today?
     2. Is there any browser functionality that's missing, like opening a URL in the same/current browser tab, instead of a new tab or window?
     3. Would it be helpful to open selected list view records in different application? (example: WOTRACK --> Assignment Manager)
     4. Other?
