Hello Ranjan,

A right click on a button can only autogenerate a page if it nows for which entity it should create a page. So Asish is right. You probably did put the widget outside of the context of an entity. You would then need a microflow to create the right object and open the correct page in the microflow.

Regards,

Ronald

I was facing the same issue.

So i found the solution.

Right click on button and select properties.

In above window you need to select “Create Object” for OnClick then click OK.

After above activity you will the option on right click on add button to select entity option.
