Starting a guided tour automatically

You can configure a guided tour to start automatically when the section that includes the tour is displayed. Guided tours can start every time the section is displayed for a user, only the first time the section is displayed for a user, or only once per user session.

For a tour to start for a user, the user must have Data-Preference-Operator write permissions, so that their tour history can be recorded.

1. Click in the cell where you want to include the control, and then click the Gear icon to open the Cell Properties panel.
2. Click change, and select Other.
3. In the Select a control field, select one of the following controls:
   • pxGuidedTourAutoStart – Select this control to configure the guided tour to start every time the section is displayed for a user or only the first time.
   • pxGuidedTourAutoStartOncePerSession – Select this control to specify that the guided tour starts only once per user session. For example, if multiple users log in with the same credentials, you might want the guided tour to start automatically for each session.
4. On the Parameters tab, provide the following information:
   • TourClass – Specify the class in which the tour is defined.
   • TourName – Specify the name of the tour to run.
   • AutoLaunchAlways – Select this check box to start the tour every time the section that includes the control is displayed. By default, this check box is not selected, and the tour starts only the first time the section is displayed. (This option is only available for the pxGuidedTourAutoStart control.)
5. Click Submit and save the section.
