[devanggandhi]

Is there any way to use the global notification bar (Alert).

Hi,

This is not available to plugins. You can show alerts on a view level (within the plugin iframe).

Globally, the best practice is to create vCenter tasks for operations which are long-running or might fail. In this case the Task panels would provide notification to the user for the success/failure of the operation.

As this is not the first time I hear this question: could you please share what kind of use case you would use the global alerts for?

Thanks,

Vladi

I want to throw the warning message that html client is not connected appropriate version. in current code base, I have to throw that kind of global warning message in each seperate dialog and view.

Hm, to me it sound like throwing it in each view is exactly where it is supposed to show up as it is applicable to the plugin operations inside the iframe, not to the HTML Client as a whole.

If I misunderstood you please elaborate on what you mean by connection to appropriate version (it is not clear what connection you are talking about and version of what you are referring to, the plugin version?)
