This article explains the Action Button block that can be added to design an app.
This button allows end-users to navigate to other Clappia apps within the workplace. It can navigate to the other app’s Home page, Submissions tab, and Analytics tab. The button can also be used to navigate to external sites.
In the Design App tab, click on Add Field and select the Action Block. Start editing on the panel that appears on the right side.
This is what appears as the name of the action button to the end-user.
This is the text that goes below the action button to help the user with some information, or it could be left blank.
This is used to decide whether the button will navigate to another Clappia app within the workplace or to an external site.
If ‘Open Clappia App’ is selected, additional fields for configuration appears:
Here you can select an app available in the workplace, where the action button will navigate the user to upon being clicked.
Once an app is selected, this field will appear. Select the tabs within the selected app for the user to be navigated to. The user can be navigated to the selected app’s Home page, Submissions tab, or Analytics tab.
Note:
Selecting ‘Home’ as the view type:
This allows the user to be navigated to a certain field, section, or page (if page breaks are inserted in that app) within the app they are navigated to.
Select ‘Page’ if you want the user to be navigated to the beginning of an app or to a certain page within that app. If there are no multiple pages for an app, simply select ‘Page 1’ for the Navigate to page field that appears at the bottom of the Navigate to field.
Similarly you will get a ‘Navigate to field’ or ‘Navigate to section’ field if the ‘Navigate to’ is configured as field or section respectively.
This is to redirect a user to external sites.
If ‘Open Link’ is selected in Action on Click field, the additional field for configuration appears:
Add the website link to redirect the user.
Select where the button is to be aligned.
Use this if you want to show or hide the action button under certain conditions. It accepts the standard Clappia Formulae, similar to conditional sections.
