Re: Working Copy to Clipboard Button

In August 2021 QB stopped allowing "unsupported content" like javascript, presumably for security reasons. Existing javascript still works, but for any new formulas it won't let you save it.

I found this really helpful when I needed to recreate a button action without javascript:

Happy to share my code with you if that helps. It's not a button that copies to the clipboard though. It changes the values of two fields in a record.

Mark, here's the new code I wrote to replace javascript. It's meant to be used as a button in a report to mark a record as "reviewed" with the username and date/time recorded.

var text name = "&_FID_12=";    //FID for a user field I want to change
var text stamp = "&_FID_13=";    //FID for a date field I want to change
var text tk = "cm7ucz6d2iyh6db4exfkbpzgsyx";         //Apptoken for my application
var text return = "&rdr=' + escape(window.location); return false;});";

    URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&apptoken=" & $tk & "&rid=" & [Record ID#] &
    $name & ToText(User()) &
    "&rdr=" &
        
        URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&apptoken=" & $tk & "&rid=" & [Record ID#] &
            $stamp & Today() &
            "&rdr=" &
                URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=doredirect&z=" & Rurl()
        ))​
