Hello,
I included what you have mentioned in the href url but still getting an error: <a href= <pega:include name="ForgetPassword" type="Rule-Obj-FlowAction"/>>Forget Password </a>. What am I missing sytanx wise? and how I can include the call for an activity?
Many Thanks,
Ghina
Hi Ghina,
The Pega reference tag that I shared was to reference a flow action in an html rule.
Are you using Href in a section? if yes, then you can make use of the OOTB link control to lauch a flow action or run an activity.
If this is not possible, please do let us know why.

Ghina,
Are you using the default pxLink control? If so we can configure launching a flow action in the action area in the proeprties of the control. Let us know if it helps.

When you say on click you want flow action to be called. Do you want to launch flow action in modal dialog ?
If Yes, below js function will help to launch the flow action.
pega.u.d.processAction('testFlowActionName', '','Rule-Obj-FlowAction','','',true,this,'','',this);
Hi Ghina,
Could you please add <pega:include name="<name of flowaction>" type="Rule-Obj-FlowAction"/> in the HTML rule and test.
Thanks,
