Toolbar Items
Audience: Developers & Solution Architects
Purpose: Explains how plugin toolbar items work in Kizen and how they can be used to trigger plugin actions from the application toolbar.
Overview
Plugin toolbar items are actions that can be added to the top-level navigation bar in the application. When a plugin app registers a toolbar item, it becomes available in the toolbar builder and can be configured by each individual user, or as part of a toolbar template for the business.
When clicked, the toolbar item runs a single plugin script that can perform any action the plugin runner is capable of. For example:
Navigate within Kizen to a specific page
Open an embedded floating frame
Run JavaScript code that combines complex events, such as calls to the Kizen API or external services
If a plugin is disabled for a business, any associated toolbar items will be hidden until the plugin is re-enabled.
