+8Currently, when adding a new button (within command groups in the page designer) it seems that the ExternalNavigationLink is being restricted to prefix with either http:// or https:// - is there any way of calling a custom scheme / protocol (class) registered on the PC?
I have a local class that has been associated with a software in where I want to invoke it from Aurena. Is this even possible?

As far as I know, such functionality is not yet planned for the coming updates. Hence if someone wants to create a custom command with External Navigation to other protocols rather than http:// or https:// that will be a customization.
+8do you know if it will be possible in future update(s)?
So is it safe to say that, in order to invoke an External Application in Aurena - customizations to those forrms needs to be done (in current IFS 10 Update 7 and below)?
+19+8thx for the input, guess I need to think a bit more then how we can replace the traditional “call external program” in Aurena.
+15+8We have a product, see
(that has an .exe file) that basically takes a command line argument and creates reports that is being used by many customers (which are now starting to look at upgrading to Aurena). We registered this using a custom class in windows in order to invoke it from a web browser (or anywhere on the PC) but was surprised by the limitation in Aurena (restricted to http or https) when it comes to ExternalNavigationLink.
I managed to solve it though in the end without having to create an extension for Chrome / Edge etc by using existing limitations (http / https) :)
