Hello team!

The Go to URL action is forcing a new window in Lightning regardless of the target setting; current window and parent window have the same problem.

I do get to the right page however it’s always a new window which is a less ideal user experience! 😛

I’m on version 11.1.8 in my sandbox.

Thank you,

Dan

What URL are you going to? Only relative URLs that point to Lightning Experience content are allowed to be opened within Lightning Experience — if you’re trying to open an external URL on another domain, that has to be opened in a new tab / window in your browser.

Zach,

I take back my complaint. The issue was I was using the {{$Site.CurrentSiteUrl}}/{{{Id}}} – a holdover from classic configurations.

I changed it simply to /{{{Id}}} and it works!

Thanks,

Dan
