Side Panel with External Link - Google Drive

Hello ​@smcgovern57 

You can add a field to the header screen and set the corresponding URL.
You can also add a button, and when the button is clicked, it will redirect the user to a new page based on the specified URL.

For example Stock Item screen

#region Action

public PXAction<InventoryItem> Url;
[PXUIField(DisplayName = "", MapEnableRights = PXCacheRights.Select, MapViewRights = PXCacheRights.Select)]
[PXButton(CommitChanges = true)]

public void url()
{
    string urlGoogleDrive= "";
    InventoryItem item = this.Base.Item.Current;
    Base.Cancel.Press();
    if (item != null)
    {          
  InventoryItemExtTest itemExt = PXCache<InventoryItem>.GetExtension<InventoryItemExtTest >(item);
         urlGoogleDrive= itemExt.{YourField}.ToString();
            }
        }
    }
    var redirectException = new PXRedirectToUrlException(urlGoogleDrive, PXBaseRedirectException.WindowMode.New, "This is a Message, which gets ignored in this case");
    throw redirectException;
}

Additionally, you can use the [PXDBWeblink] attribute for the field.

Hello ​@smcgovern57 

Adding to Vard’s suggestion — using PXRedirectToUrlException works well for opening the link in a new tab.

If the goal is specifically to display the Google Drive folder inside the Side Panel area, another option is to:

1. Create a custom action that retrieves the URL from the UDF field.

2. Add the action to the screen via Screen Configuration -> Add to Side Panel.

3. Configure it as a side panel navigation action.

This allows the Drive folder to load in the right-side panel while keeping the main Project screen visible.

Also, using [PXDBWeblink] is a good lightweight option if simply displaying a clickable hyperlink is sufficient and a side panel is not required.
