USD - Global Applications load on USD Startup as blank

Hi Team,

I am using Global applications and have set application is dynamic as no application checkbox to load the application as soon as USD starts.

My Global Application is a standard web application which uses a navigate action to load a web page. But in my case the global application tab opens up as a blank page, the only reason I can think of is the navigate action is not firing because when i fire it manually it reloads the global application with web app.

Now, I know I can use CCA hosted type and it will load the application and also I can use desktopReady event to fire the action but my question is it a good practice or would it impact the performance. I can see that default uii action is set as default action for my hosted control, if i make navigate action as default then would this work?

Hi Farhan,

We recommend to use Standard Web Application along with Chrome hosting. Also hosted controls being dynamic and triggered on events, navrules. CCA control for web hosting is discouraged.

Ideally making Navigate action default and assigning url value should load the page Navigated, however its not happening so because just hosted control is loading that is even before desktop ready but not navigated. Assuming this shall not be addressed in product with a priority. For now you can consider keeping hosted control global, dynamic=false, and still call Navigate action call on DesktopReady event. This should almost give you performance that you are looking for, you may compare it with CCA hosted control behavior.

Let me know if this is helpful.
