Passing Module Parameters in NavigateTo

Question

At the bottom of this page https docs q2developer com guides frontend development additional entrypoints html highlight module 20Parameters It describes the process of defining module parameters that can be passed in using navigateTo I have successfully configured those parameters using the q2 tecton CLI tool and I can successfully get navigateTo to work however I can t seem to get any queryParams to successfully pass using navigateTo As detailed here https cdn4 onlineaccess1 com cdn base tecton v1 23 Documentation capabilities navigateTo No matter how I structure the queryParams Dict object it throws an error indicating that a variable name is undefined Example error message is TypeError Cannot read properties of undefined reading zip Where zip or any variety of variable name strings objects javascript dictionary objects arrays etc is always the thing that is undefined This is something simple I m sure here is a sample request tecton actions navigateTo moduleName Main queryParams zip 90210 I have also tried variable name zip without quotes forming that queryParams value in a dozen different ways always fails Is there any working example of this simple tecton function that actually passes queryParams successfully so that the variable values can be picked up in the destination module Any help would be greatly appreciated PS Alternate approach I would just use a form submission however I need to take the user input in a right sidebar widget but open the Extension route in the main content area not in the sidebar Is there a way to direct the destination of a form submission into that main content area

Hi Jason This error reads like your module parameters are either not configured correctly or the updated configuration is not being picked up for use when running locally So once you ve added the module paramaters your configuration should look something like this NewFeature overpanel False primary False navigable True formPostAuth True url sdk authenticated featureName meta type shape Content context None overpanelReady True params zip replace True type string The CLI should ask you Would you like to update the current environment tecton config now You can either do that or restart your server to make sure the new config gets picked up when loaded When you open your feature you should see a line like this in the logging Transition routing to default feature manifest That should be picking up the config you just added to Then to navigate to that feature you ll pass the feature name module name and your new query param tecton actions navigateTo featureName NewFeature moduleName Main queryParams zip 90210 Let me know if this helps If not I m happy to take a look at your code if it is pushed up and make sure we can get you rolling

Hi Adam Thanks for the specific details I had exactly what you are showing above but for some reason the navigateTo was failing every time All I did after checking against your example was to shut down everything and start it all back up again and now it is working perfectly I must have had a bad file or a stuck process or something along those lines Thanks Jason
