Open Links In Instructions Text as New tabs
Hi,
I have a external workspace that is built on Pega React SDK and connects to our pega application built on constellation. A new concept as part of constellation UI is being able to provide instruction text in the form. In the instruction text you are able to insert links to other web pages just like you could in a paragraph rule. However, it does not give you option to set the link to be open in a new tab like you could do in a traditional paragraph rule. As a result, when a user clicks the link from the portal build on the react sdk they are navigated away from their task to a different web page.
Is anyone aware of a workaround for this on how to be able to add target="_blank" to <a> tag that is used to create the hyperlink so that it opens in a new tab for the instruction text?
I am on pega 23.1.3. Please see the configuration I am referring to in the attachment
