Add "View in Portal" console task

Adam_Dzyacky

This is probably a rather large request, as there really isn't an "end" to where the feature could go but it would be awesome if there was a console task that took you to the Item you were currently viewing in the console.

This could be a Work Item, CI, or Asset.

This is actually really simple for users to implement themselves:

In Library->Tasks->Create New Task and Give it a Name, Class and Management Pack


For the Command Line use 'explorer' (it loads the webpage in the systems default browser)
And for the Parameters enter the link for your portal domain with '/Incident/Edit/$Context/Property[Type='WorkItem!System.WorkItem']/Id$' (like the image)


This will load Incidents with a task. Create a similar task for Service Requests and use the SR class, the url should use "ServiceRequest" instead of 'Incident'.

I typically turn off "Show Output when this task is run" just because there's no real need to see a console when loading the Portal, so it makes things a little neater.

Wow. I do not believe I missed this. Highest of fives @Tony_Collett. Entirely negates the request, but in the event anyone has a similar idea here's to hoping they stumble across this thread.
