Go back programmatically from within AppEngine

msilvax28 — Tue, 23 Jan 2024 17:54:56 GMT

Our AppEngine UI has a use case where we want to send the user back to a parent page from within our code - e.g. custom bread crumbing.

Within AppEngine common 'go back' features don't seem to work. For example with react-router-dom v6 we tried to use the useNavigate hook and call navigate(-1) - but no effect.

We also tried history.back() and also nothing happened.

What are the recommendations ways to go back programmatically within appEngine and why don't these common methods work?

Hi @msilvax28

It is not yet possible to navigate backward/forward with Dynatrace apps. But the team plans to support this. Unfortunately, I can't give you an ETA. Also I am not aware of any workaround you can use in the mean time.

Best,
