Problem adding a simple button to SuiteCRM 8 Account's detailview

[clemente.raposo]

Hi @pat,

Welcome to the community! and thanks for trying out SuiteCRM 8.

The metadata configuration for adding buttons changed. The documentation for how to add a button hasn’t been released yet.

What do you want the the button to do?

SuiteCRM 8 Extensions

Hey there, I am trying to develop a simple extension that would add a button to Accounts/detail view, that would call, upon being clicked, an external API on the backend. I was trying to follow Developer Guide here on your website and also SugarCrm website, but to no luck. I even tried a simple example from your website Metadata :: SuiteCRM Documentation, but that did not work for me either ? The suiteCRM 8 folder structure is also quite different to the suiteCRM 7 folder structure, are you sup…

Hope this helps.

PS: We’re in the holiday season, so I may take a while to reply back.
