LWC Quick Action Support

[Paul Kissick]

The new LWC Quick Action features are identified as errors by IC. See https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2021/05/learn-moar-with-summer-21-lwc-quick-actions.html for details on the feature.

I’m seeing errors in the LWC metadata file where I wrote:

<targetConfig targets="lightning__RecordAction">
<actionType>ScreenAction</actionType>
</targetConfig>

This is valid, but the <actionType> tag is marked as not allowed here by IC.

There is also an error when importing the lightning/actions module for CloseActionScreenEvent.

import { CloseActionScreenEvent } from 'lightning/actions';

Finally, the documentation for the lightning-quick-action-panel component is incorrect, claiming that the title attribute is used to set the title of the modal. This should be header, not title. (found in the /components/lightning/quickActionPanel.js file).

Thanks for logging. I'll take care of it for the next build.

[Scott Wells]

Paul, I've already committed fixes for the first two. Can you please provide a concrete reference to lightning-quick-action-panel > header? As you pointed out, all published documentation that I've found specifies title.

[Paul Kissick]

Hi Scott, I don’t have any documentation to back this up. The LWC docs aren’t available for v52 yet either.

All I know is that title doesn’t work, and header is mentioned in the source code for the lightning-quick-action-panel component, and that works on components I’ve written.

[Scott Wells]

Okay. I've added header in addition to title so that it'll work in code completion and validation. I'm not removing title, though, until I see authoritative documentation that it's incorrect. This will all be in the next build, likely for Thursday morning release.

[Paul Kissick]

Thanks Scott.

Whilst not conclusive proof, someone else has recognised this title/header issue on stackexchange.

[Scott Wells]

Yeah, that's a good lead. It's always fun catching up after a seasonal platform release with the things that aren't documented (properly) in the release notes or even updated docs but rather as part of tribal knowledge. Thanks for the info!

[Paul Kissick]

Hi Scott, I’ve just checked and the docs have been updated for the summer release (finally):

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/component-library/bundle/lightning-quick-action-panel/specification

This shows header as an attribute.

It’s also in the dev guide: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/component-library/documentation/en/lwc/lwc.use_quick_actions_screen

[Scott Wells]

Ah, perfect! Thanks for the update, Paul. I'll remove title altogether for tomorrow morning's build.
