How to create a popout window or new tab
I've been trying to figure out how to create a new browser window or tab, but have been unsuccessful thus far. I can see that it can be done because the Designer Studio's Team Moderate and Informational Guardrail Warnings numbers all do that. Unfortunately, looking at how they are done does not help me as each number performs the action in a slightly different way.
Is there a step-by-step tutorial somewhere that shows how to do this?

Sorry, I suppose I need to clarify that I do not want a modal popup, I want a new browser window or new browser tab.

Hi ,
Place a button in your section and configure on click runscript.
Under runscript give a function name, say testFunction.
Now put the below code :
functiontestFunction(){
window.open("https://www.google.com");
}
this function defination can be used in the userworkform (inside <script> /* put the function defination here */</script>)
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Vikash

@sahuv1 Thank you for the answer. What do I do if I'm pointing to a new page or section within the app? I don't have a specific URL for that?

Follow-up and a bit more clarity:
So I have a link on a table. On this link, when you click on it (event), the Action section does a "Close" and "Create Work". But it opens up a new page (section) within the same browser tab. How do I make it so that the new section is opened within a new browser tab or new browser window?
