Button "Select action" with foreman 3.16

Support
1

Hello,

With the latest version of foreman (3.16), with the new interface I do not find an equivalent of the “Select action” button under host → hosts.
Except to switch to the legacy interface, is this button relocated somewhere else ? It was very usefull to have all thos actions grouped under the main interface.

Thx a lot.

The equivalent on the new page is the vertical ellipsis (three dots) menu.

Not all actions are available yet in the new UI. Hopefully the most commonly used actions are avialable, though. Let us know if there is something essential that you’re missing.

Hello, thanks for your answer. I would need the schedule remote action entry and also the “run ansible role” if it would be possible.

Those should both be available from the “Schedule a Job” dropdown:

You can click the Schedule a Job directly to schedule a REX job for future execution. Or you can click the dropdown to see the menu illustrated above.
