ActionByKey

Using this widget, you can start an Action, like "Show a page" or "Call a Microflow", by pressing a key on your keyboard.

Why should I use it?

This widget will greatly increase the speed of your business case. Imagine a form where an employee fills in data, and has to click on the Confirm button with a mouse click. It would be way quicker when just pressing a key like "Enter" to Save changes and close the page.

Features

  • Send along Parameters from your context in a Microflow or Nanoflow
  • Fire any action by pressing a key
  • The keys can be entered in the widget settings
  • Use any number of keys for an action
  • Keys can be applied via the parameters
  • You can use multiple actions on a page

Usage

  1. Download the widget from the App Store
  2. Place the widget (or multiple) on a page
  3. To get key codes, just search the internet or go to https://keycode.info/
  4. Separate the keys by a space
  5. Select an action, and you're done
