I am trying to execute the custom action in webscript myspaces, but for this I need to have access to "actions" Alfresco javascript object and inside "myspaces_preview_panel.ftl" I haven't it.

Finally I found the solution by creating a bean that receives the request AJAX, in the same way as they do the remaining shares of MySpace. The steps I have followed are:

1. edit myspaces.js with a new javascript function for send the AJAX request
2. edit myspaces_preview_panel.ftl to call the new javascript function
3. create a bean in the same way as "MySpacesBean" or "PortletActionsBean"
4. edit faces-config-beans.xml for register the new Bean.
