URL parameters to 'Views' within same browser window

Hello,

I have an app configured within ExBuilder v11.3 as follows:

Several 'sections' all navigable via a 'View Navigation'
Lists on those sections allow me to 'Set Link' to open other views within the app

Here's what I need, alongside the above:

Select a feature on the map
Open the appropriate view within the app

There appears to be no way to set an action or link to allow this to occur. If I set a URL within the popup of the selected feature on the map using the below it does open to the correct view, but in a new browser tab:

https://myportal.com/portal/apps/experiencebuilder/experience/?id=bxxxxxxxxxxxxf&page=LEAK-%26-BREAKS-DISPATCHER&views=CREATE-NEW-LEAK

So how can I either:

Set an action so a selected feature opens the view, or
create a URL that opens the view within this browser tab?

I can answer my own question and hopefully help someone else. I figured out I can use Javascript within an arcade expression. I use the below in a arcade element within a popup and it works exactly as I need it to:

var OID = $feature.OBJECTID

var url1 = 'https://myportal.com/portal/apps/experiencebuilder/experience/?draft=true&id=bxxxxxxxxxxf&page=LEAK-%26-BREAKS-DISPATCHER&views=ACTIVE-LEAKS%2CCREATE-NEW-LEAK#data_s=id%3AdataSource_4-18fc5181f68-layer-16-0%3A'

var btn =

'<div align="center">'

+ '<a href="'+ url1 + OID +'"style="background-color:#007BC1;;color:#ffffff;padding:10px; border-radius:10px;text-decoration:none;display:inline-block;text-align:center;"target="_self" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, "_self"); return false;\" >'

+'<b>CREATE A NEW LEAK AT THIS ADDRESS</b>'

+'</a>'

+'</div>'

return {

type : 'text',

text : btn

}

This is how it looks. I need to refine this a bit to zoom the map into the same location but I’m on the right path…
