Hello,

I want to control the URL redirection after a specific document is created. The redirection is to move to the parent folder.

Should it's possible to do that easily or i have to create a custom User Action with UI Document creation, get parent and navigate ?

Thanks.

I extended the DocumentActionsBean and used the SaveDocument method to achieve this, add in validations, auto-calculate some field values, etc. Modified the line navigationContext.navigateToDocument(newDocument, "after-create") to use parentDoc instead of newDocument. Worked in 5.5 and 5.6 but haven't tried in 5.7/8.

Thanks a lot, very helpfull ... I have a last question ... How i extend the current DocumentActionsBean and SaveDocument action ? Everytime i'm trying i have an error because i'm using the same component name (documentActions)

Did you add an @Install just after @Scope to make sure your extended component with the same name has higher precedence?

Also, not sure if it's still necessary, I also extended the DocumentActions interface and then had my custom DocumentActionsBean implement that (I recall getting another error otherwise)

I added the missing @Install and it's work, thanks !
