ThoughtSpot For Developers•4w ago

cpiro - Hi everyone! I'm trying to implement it...

Hi everyone! I'm trying to implement it as a "Code-based custom action" by following https://developers.thoughtspot.com/docs/code-based-custom-action, in particular by providing customActions to init. But if I specify position: CustomActionsPosition.CONTEXTMENU, it seems no matter what else I specify for target or the other parameters, I never see a context menu item for that action. Are there any tricks to getting this to work? I've already tried adding the following to both the init constructor and as a prop to <LiveboardEmbed /> ... it passes validation, but no context menu item appears anywhere, no matter which permutation of the commented out fields I supply:

customActions: [
                {
                  name: "test",
                  id: "cpiro-test",
                  position: CustomActionsPosition.CONTEXTMENU,
                  target: CustomActionTarget.VIZ,
                  // metadataIds: {
                  //   answerIds: [answerId],
                  // },
                  // dataModelIds: {
                  //   modelIds: [modelId],
                  //   modelColumnNames: [`${modelId}::User Full Name`, "User Full Name"],
                  // },
                },
              ],

customActions: [
                {
                  name: "test",
                  id: "cpiro-test",
                  position: CustomActionsPosition.CONTEXTMENU,
                  target: CustomActionTarget.VIZ,
                  // metadataIds: {
                  //   answerIds: [answerId],
                  // },
                  // dataModelIds: {
                  //   modelIds: [modelId],
                  //   modelColumnNames: [`${modelId}::User Full Name`, "User Full Name"],
                  // },
                },
              ],

Hey, @cpiro Can you please tell me your cluster version and SDK version? And are you passing any restriction of metadataIds or dataModelIds when it is not working for you?

cpiroOP•4w ago

Hi @Aditya! I've tried both SDK version 1.40.1 and 1.43.0 with no success. What exactly do you mean by "cluster version"? The RDS instance we've given ThoughtSpot Cloud access to is at engine version 16.8. I've tried configuring the custom action as shown (with metadataIds and dataModelIds commented out) and also with just metadataIds, just modelIds, just modelColumnNames: ["User Full Name"], just modelColumnNames: ["${modelId}::User Full Name"], and each of the 16 total permutations of including and not including all of the above

Your ThoughtSpot cluster cloud version. If it is 10.14 and above and if you are still facing the same issue. We can jump on a quick call because this is not reproducible on my end

cpiroOP•4w ago

I'm sorry @Aditya how do I check our "ThoughtSpot cluster cloud version"? I'm not sure what that is, and the both the regular documentation search and AI-generated answer from https://laurel.thoughtspot.cloud/#/develop/documentation/en/?pageid=ask-docs are unhelpful (the payload data here does not have a field version)

Aditya•4w ago

Can you please share your TS URL? I will check

https://laurel.thoughtspot.cloud and https://laurel-eu.thoughtspot.cloud
