View source for BestPractices:Navigating without user interaction

Sometimes, for example, after a user has logged in, you want to automatically navigate to another page.

Do this:
# Place a [[Period action]] on the form. 
# Set a navigating action on it.
# Set the disabled expression to something like "disabled when not logged in".
# Set the interval to something other than -1 (disabled) for example 10 (ms).

'''Note!''' If you create a ViewModel that requires a root object, be sure to send it or your action will NOT RUN. The [[Index page]] is called without a root object. For this reason, use SysSingleton.oclSingleton instead.

Example of an Index (web) page that automatically navigates to a user dashboard upon login.
