Link Menu

Introduction

The Link Menu in Joget DX allows you to create a clickable link within the UI, enabling users to access external URLs or other UI menus seamlessly. Here are the properties you can configure for the Link Menu:

Configure link

To configure Link properties, in UI Builder, drag and drop the Link element onto the canvas and click on it.

When adding Link, you will see the following fields available for configuration:

• Label: Provide a descriptive label for the link UI menu.
• Menu ID: Item link slug. Optional field.
  Ensure that the value defined here is unique to other UI menus in the app since the first matching/conflicting ID will take precedence in page loading.
• URL: Enter the URL or specify a UI menu ID to link to within your Joget application.
• Target: Target window to open the link.

  Available options are:

  • New Window: Opens the link in a new browser window/tab.
  • Current Window: Opens the link in the current browser window/tab.
  • IFrame: Displays the linked content within an iframe.
  • Script: Executes a custom script when the link is clicked.
