I have a webform that opens inside a modal. Everything works fine. Then I had the problem of closing the modal after the form was submitted. I fixed that to with the help of the following link: https://www.drupal.org/project/webform/issues/3002966#comment-12794056

I have a webform handler that creates a new entity in the postSave() method. After this entity is created, I want to close the modal and redirect to the entity detail page. What is the best/correct way to do this. I could use a RedirectCommand instead of the CloseDialogCommand but how do I get the entity id in the _CUSTOM_MODULE_webform_submission_form_submit_ajax() method. Using the AjaxResponse with a RedirectCommand in the postSave() method didn't work.

Any Suggestions would be great ;-)

Yes you are so close! just move the creation of the new entity from your postSave() to right in the ajax call back

example: _CUSTOM_MODULE_webform_submission_form_submit_ajax(array &$form, FormStateInterface $form_state) { // At this point we have all access to $form_state->getValues(); // the webform submission is all ready saved so we can use the values here. // Get the entity storage. $entity_storage = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStoage('ENITYNAME'); // Create New entity. $new_entity = $entity_storage->create([ 'field_whatever' => $form_state->getValue('some_field'); ]); // Save entity $new_entity->save(); $new_entity_id = $new_entity->id(); // set the url. $url = "/where-ever/" . $new_entity_id; $response = new AjaxResponse(); $response->addCommand(new CloseModalDialogCommand()); $response->addCommand(new RedirectCommand($url); // Party. return $response; }
