Button on List View about sfdx-mass-action-scheduler HOT 5 CLOSED

To make sure I understand the ask, are you wanting a button on a list view of the records you want to process?

For example, a button on a contacts list view that when clicked it kicked off one of the Mass Action configurations?

The app already comes with an invocable apex class to kick off configurations from flow and process builder via an “apex action”. If you created a list view button that pointed to a flow then your flow could run the Mass Action apex action without you writing any code.

However, the list view selected in the mass action configuration would be what is used, not necessarily the list view the user is looking at when they clicked this custom button.

Hi @streetyouth,

Thanks for using Mass Action Scheduler. I haven't heard back from you in a while, I'm going to close this issue. If you're still interested in discussing this issue please reply and I'll re-open.

Thanks,

Doug - I think above answers my question - wanting to "invoke" or [Run] a Mass action in another flow. But what specifically is the invocable apex in your package called?

@bruceleestewart The apex class name is MA_RunConfigInvocable

@streetyouth Thanks for the follow up, I've re-opened this feature request. Sounds like you want a way for users to click a button and that would manually trigger one of your Mass Action Configurations.

In the meantime, a way to make this work in Lightning Experience would be to add a Flow component to either a record page or Utility Bar and your Flow have a screen for the user to signal they want to run a configuration. In your Flow, you would use an apex action to run MA_RunConfigInvocable labeled MAS: Run Mass Action. Your Flow could either hard code the Mass Action Configuration record's ID, or the Flow could use a dynamic choice to give the user an option of which they wanted to run.

Here's example from the wiki: https://github.com/DouglasCAyers/sfdx-mass-action-scheduler/wiki/Example:-Schedule-Mass-Actions-with-Process-Builder,-Flow,-or-Apex
