Hi everyone

I came across a feature that could enhance our user experience: adding deeplinks or other url support to snackbar messages.

The benefit for the user is that we (developer) can help the user to optionally navigate to a subject. 

For example: in our application we notify the user of the creation of an order (without a task popup screen). It's up to the user to navigate to the created order or continue creating new orders. In these types of cases a process flow to navigate a user to the order is not possible. 

It would help the user if he can click on a deeplinks in the snackbar to open the newly created order if he wants to go to the order details.

@Arie V , any thoughts on this?


@André Romijn yes, absolutely love the Idea! Discussed it a bit internally already. 

I’m quite sure this will be implemented, but it is not the highest of priorities for the upcoming 6 months.

@Arie V as noted in the work on the upcoming sprint (see Release notes 2024.2.14) there is already work planned for snackbar messages (direct link to database errors from snackbar messages).

 

I see some overlap😉


@André Romijn thanks for thinking along 😊

Double-checked internally, but the database error log link doesn’t help much for this Idea.

In order to support this, we’ll need to enable Developers to not only provide a message (like you can do now), but also a couple of other things. For instance:

  • a (translation for the) clickable button in the snackbar
  • a (dynamic) URL: in your example you’ll probably want a Deeplink to a Process Flow, which includes an Open Document and a Filter or Go to row (which needs the unique Order ID for the Order just created and is different for every Order)
  • the ability to determine whether to open in a New tab or the same tab.
