"Add To Visual Task Board" UI Action (List Context Menu) returns "Page Not Found" Error. - Support and Troubleshooting

"Add To Visual Task Board" UI Action (List Context Menu) returns "Page Not Found" Error. Issue Symptoms If a record in a list view of a table is right-clicked, a context menu item named "Add to Visual Task Board" show up as shown in the below screenshot:

If this is selected, it generates a pop-up where it asks for which Visual Task Board (VTB), you want to add the record for. However, there are cases when this pop-up generates "Page not found" error as shown below:

Release Any supported release.

Environment UI15/UI16.

Cause - "Add to Visual Task Board" here is a UI action which is visible only in context menu as "List Context Menu" checkbox is set to true (and "List v2 Compatible" to true).

- If you open this UI action, the script is responsible for generating the pop-up, a.k.a, iframe with the mentioned URL.

- Out-of-the-box, at line 7 the iframe URL is defined:

iframe : "$vtb_add_to_board.do?sysparm_record_id=" + taskSysID + "&sysparm_table_name=" + tableName + "&sysparm_nostack"

- If the above URL misses the " $ " sign and if it's written as, you will get "Page not found" error as depicted in the above screenshot:

iframe : "vtb_add_to_board.do?sysparm_record_id=" + taskSysID + "&sysparm_table_name=" + tableName + "&sysparm_nostack"

- The reason being that VTBs are purely angular-powered and adding a dollar sign in the URL makes the $scope object capture the whole page as a unit unlike non-dollar sign URLs.

Resolution - The UI action if it's customized should be thoroughly reviewed and above information shall be considered for this weird behavior.
