Simple URL redirect - how?
Hey all,
Maybe this was already asked, but I don't find an answer in the community yet.
In Sales Automation (8.7) we adopted the "Shareable link" feature as existing in Agile Studio, to provide a simple URL for sharing purposes.
There are 2 issues:
- The provided URL does not open in a separate thread. So if the receiving user opens it in a new browser tab and is already logged into the application, it shows the page where the user was already staying instead to open the desired work instance. So 2 browser tabs existing no with the same context.
- If the receiving user is not logged in, the URL points to the login screen which is correct. However, after logging in, the system does not forward to the work instance, instead it keeps staying on the default landing page after login.
Please where has this to be configured so that it works properly?
The simple URL configuration on the URLMapping rule pyDefault seems to be ok (followed according to the instructions under https://collaborate.pega.com/discussion/theme-cosmos-open-work-object-full-portal-copy-sharable-link). So this is probably part of the application configuration. The behavior described under 1. also happens when the user manually opens a new browser tab and provides a link to to the logged application - and a change in one tab will cause an update to the same in the other tab.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Update - the issue is solved. Following the link above, the problem was the when rule @baseclass.pyIsAutoGenThread. Updating the condition to
@String.contains(@toUpperCase(pxThread.pxThreadName),@toUpperCase("autothread"))
ensures the correct behavior:
- receiving user is logged in and has permissions ==> the system forwards to the instance
- receiving user is not logged in and has permissions ==> login screen appears, after login the system forwards to the instance
- receiving user does not have permissions ==> (after login) the system shows the appropriate message
