Redirect

User interface for actions of type Redirect.

The Redirect action allows redirecting to another external or internal web page.

Parameters

URL template: An already stored URL-Template or the direct input of the URL can be selected.
URL: Input of a URL, if Direct input of URL was selected as URL template. The use of Variables is possible.
Additional URL parameters: URL parameters can be set for this URL to be used to call the action.

The redirection happens only after all actions have been processed. If after this action still other actions were executed, which execute a forwarding, then only the last forwarding is executed.

For example, if another action of type HTML response page was set after this action that redirects to the selected final page, the user will be redirected to this final page at the end of the action processing.
