Object Action YAML Configuration Reference
You can define an object action client extension with a client-extension.yaml file.
Usage Details
This client-extension.yaml defines an object action and an OAuth user agent:
easy-object-action-1:
name: Easy Object Action 1
oAuth2ApplicationExternalReferenceCode: easy-oauth-application-user-agent
resourcePath: /easy-object/action/1
type: objectAction
easy-oauth-application-user-agent:
type: oAuthApplicationUserAgent
The required resourcePath property defines the object action handler’s location. Point to any implementation of an object action handler that’s accessible as an external application (for example, a Java Spring Boot application). This value is combined with the homePageURL value of the associated OAuth2 application profile to form the complete URL.
Object action client extensions require OAuth2 application profiles to secure requests triggered by object actions in Liferay. The client-extension.yaml defines an additional OAuth user agent client extension for this profile, and the oAuth2ApplicationExternalReferenceCode property references that client extension’s key value.
The sample workspace demonstrates adding an object action client extension.
