OpenLink
Represents an action to open a link with some options.
Available for Google Workspace add-ons and Google Chat apps.
// A button that opens as a link in an overlay and// requires a reload when closed.constbutton=CardService.newTextButton().setText('This button opens a link in an overlay window').setOpenLink(CardService.newOpenLink().setUrl('https://www.google.com').setOpenAs(CardService.OpenAs.OVERLAY).setOnClose(CardService.OnClose.RELOAD_ADD_ON),);// An action response that opens a link in full screen and// requires no action when closed.constactionResponse=CardService.newActionResponseBuilder().setOpenLink(CardService.newOpenLink().setUrl('https://www.google.com').setOpenAs(CardService.OpenAs.FULL_SIZE).setOnClose(CardService.OnClose.NOTHING),).build();
Note: To reload add-ons after closing a link, don't use a link with
Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy (COOP) header enabled. If COOP is enabled in a link, add-ons can't
detect the window state, and the add-on card doesn't update.
