Portal - How to set hyperlink on primary field in Entity List if not set up as first column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 44

Hi,

I would like to put an hyperlink on the primary field on Entity list.

By default, it is possible to set it up with the first column of the entity list but how to move this behavior if I want my primary field is set after the first column ?

I read others topics that works with custom attribute but unfortunately it can't be applied because "data value" doesn't store the guid of the record.

I have the same question (0)

    HI Alex519,

    By default, In Entity List If you enable settings to view Entity List records, It shows hyperlink only on very First Column of Entity List.

    You can refer following steps to make the other Column Value Hyperlink of any Entity List in Portal.

    1.example javascript code:

    $('.entitylist').on("loaded", function () {

        //To make the field/column's value hyperlink

        $("td[data-attribute*='Field's BackEnd Name']").each(function() { 

       // Get guid of record - This will give you the GUID of Current Record (Current Row).

        var GUID = $(this).closest('tr').attr("data-id");

        // Partial URL of webpage where you want to redirect the user.

        var pagewhereToRedirect = "Partial URL of Web Page";

        // Construct the URL

        var redirect = window.location.href + pagewhereToRedirect + "/?id="+ GUID;

        // Make the field value Hyperlink

        var text=$(this).text();

        $(this).html("<a href="+redirect+">"+text+"</a>");

        });

        });

    2.In above code, you just need to change the highlighted value only.

    (1) get ‘Field's SCHEMA NAME or Field's HTML Control Id’.

    Go Settings > Customizations > Customize the system > Entities > Case > Fields.

    (2) get ‘Web page Partial URL’

    Right Click on Hyperlink and Copy Link Address. The highlighted part is the partial URL of the webpage.
