TabContext

TabContext provides the ability to listen to tab-level events such as ContextOpen, ContextClose and perform tab-level operations such as FocusTab and CloseTab.

Supported events are as follows:

Event Name	Description
ContextOpen	This event is initiated when a new object gets opened in a particular tab.
ContextClose	This event is initiated when an object gets closed in a particular tab.

Here are the supported actions:

Action Name	Description
FocusTab	This action is used to focus on a particular browser or MSI tab.
CloseTab	This action is used to close a particular browser or MSI tab.

To get the reference of TabContext, you can use the getTabContext function. This function provides a reference to the active tab in which the application is loaded. In addition, it can pass the browserTabId as an optional parameter to get a particular browser tab's context.

Here's the syntax:

getTabContext(browserTabId?: string): Promise<ITabContext>;

Here's the parameters:

Parameter Name	Required?	Description
browserTabId	No	A particular browser tab's id. Note: You can get each browser's tabId by calling the getCurrentTabId API on frameworkProvider from each browser tab.

The following code sample shows an example in TypeScript:

/// <reference path="uiEventsFramework.d.ts"/>
const  frameworkProvider : IUiEventsFrameworkProvider  = await 
CX_SVC_UI_EVENTS_FRAMEWORK.uiEventsFramework.initialize('MyFirstExtensionID');
const tabContext: ITabContext = await  frameworkProvider.getTabContext();

The following code sample shows an example in JavaScript:

const frameworkProvider = await 
CX_SVC_UI_EVENTS_FRAMEWORK.uiEventsFramework.initialize('MyFirstExtensionID');
const tabContext = await  frameworkProvider.getTabContext();
