Where are the actions and buttons?

[#1]

I need to put a button with action for a URL.

Hi Fabiano,

Qlik Sense is not QlikView (as you may already know). There are no actions in Qlik Sense Desktop.

However, the Text & Image object allows you to create a link. Just drag and drop the Text & Image object, tap or click on it and in the menu for the object you will see the link icon.

I have tried what Miguel suggests and it works fine.

To do this just add a link to the text:

To actually make a button do this, you whould probably need to use an extension.

And when you use a Picture with your example you have a Button with URL

If you want an actual button, the following example is on how to create one with a very basic extension.

To do this

1.-Open Qlik Sense

2.-Go to: http://localhost:4848/workbencheditor

3.-Chose a basic template to start with:

3.-On <Projectname>.js tab type overwrite all the existent code with the following code:

define( [

],

function ( ) {   

    return {

          paint: function ($element) {

            //add your rendering code here

          $element.html( '<form method="get" action="http://www.google.com"><button type="submit">Go to Google</button></form>');

        }

    };

} );

4.-Then just edit your app to add the button:
