Question
How to running flow in modal dialog
I have a button and I wanna give action "flow in modal dialog" on my button but i don't know how to use the exist flow in my cases.
can I put the exist flow into the flow name in the "flow in modal dialog" ? because when I try to put the exist flow, the flow cannot to be find (Pega ask to make new flow in Data-Portal class).
Thank you before,
Hi Bernike,
Since you have created the section in Data-Portal class, the flow should also be created in the same class. If you want to use a flow that is present in another class, then you will have to add the reference in the Pages&Classes tab.

Hi Evita,
I've added according to what you said, but when I run the case and clicked the button it still does the loading, and nothing appeared.
do you have any other suggestions?
Thank you,
Hi Bernike,
Could you try using "Run a local action" and use Modal Dialog as a target window?

You can't refer like PageName.FlowName. All you have to do is Create an activity in Data-Portal class and in that create a new page with class of that flow which you are going to invoke. Then on this page use the method "Flow New". Example: Flow New TestFlow. Where "TestFlow" is a flow name.
Hi Tata,
I've done what you said.
In the column using page, should it be filled? because when I press the button appears error message (using page was not found). Help me with this
Thanks,
Can you please share the activity and error screen shots ?
Thanks.
Hi Bernike,
I understood your issue. Basically you need to create a page referring to your flow action class.
First on the action set, add run activity action. This activity should be present in Data - portal class. Activity will have only one step, page new (give class same as flow act class).save it. Now create another action set launch local action, target - modal dialog. Using page-give the same page name as created in the activity.
Hope it works for you.
