Hi All,

Hope all are doing good.
Requirement:
I have an ICN desktop called "Desktopabc".
There are lot of search templates in this Desktop that are belongs to different businesses.
For one of the business, need to implement custom action called "Actionabc". This action should be visible to only that business search template.
What I have done so far:
I have implemented custom action "Actionabc".
Currently it is visible in all the search template results context menu.
I have implemented some kind of logic as work around. In this work around also the custom action is visible, but if clicking on this action will display message dialog that "this functionality is not for this search template".

I am looking for a solution to hide(not show) this action for some search templates. Could you please suggest me solution.

Hi,
I check the ICN code and found ICN uses this: item.isInstanceOf && item.isInstanceOf(ecm.model._SearchTemplateBase) to know if the item in items is a search template.
