Hi all,

From my quicklink I would like to direct user to an external webpage on click of the quicklink. Would like to check will that be possible? Something like sample image below.

Any help will be appreciated!

Hi @shijingg ,

Its very easy, create a quicklink like below, once created go to debug and add the entry in systemconfiguration(in self service category, just add the line)

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE QuickLink PUBLIC "sailpoint.dtd" "sailpoint.dtd">
<QuickLink action="external" category="self Service" messageKey="click and user will be brought to external website"  name="">
  <Attributes>
    <Map>
      <entry key="displayText" value="true"/>
      <entry key="url" value="externalurl"/>
    </Map>
  </Attributes>`Preformatted text`

Hi @naveenkumar3 , can it open in a new tab instead of the current tab?

Hi shi jing Wong,

I think, it will open in the same tab, not in the new tab.

Hi @naveenkumar3 , yes it will open in the same tab. I’m checking if it’s possible to change the code to open in another tab?

not that I know. I think with newer version, sailpoint blocks it. I tried putting javascript code thing in the url, but it seems it is blocking it.

If you want to open it in a new tab, I think the simple solution would be duplicate the page in a new tab, and then open the quicklink.

Something to consider is using the QuickLink to launch a form. From there you can provide various url’s that are useful to the user and you can use html, which would allow you to add target=”_blank” to your links.
