  Hi,

  I’m currently using ar-designer and ar-viewer 17.0.0

  Two related questions about the web designer:

  1. Is there a way of closing the preview viewer via the api?
  2. Is there a way of triggering an action after the preview has been closed?

  I cannot find any such methods via the api documentation but perhaps it is labelled in a non-obvious way.

  Hi Ewan,

  Although there’s no direct way to close the viewer via the API. However, you can access the back button of the viewer using its id and simulate a report click for example ‘document.getElementById(‘viewer-container-button-back’).click()’.
  
  This will close the report preview via code.

  Please find attached a sample implementing the same.

  Unfortunately, there’s no way of triggering an action after the preview has been using the UI, but if you are closing the viewer through code you may trigger your desired function after closing the report preview.

  Regards,
