We’re excited to announce the launch of the Early Access Program (EAP) for fullscreen modals in Forge! 
What’s new?
Fullscreen modals are now available for Forge apps, closing a major gap for partners migrating from Connect or building complex workflows on Forge. This new capability allows you to deliver high-density experiences like rich editors and detailed object views, without squeezing content into small modal windows.
Fullscreen Modal Features
-
New
fullscreenmodal size exists for all Forge UI modals-
Confluence macro config: Macro
-
UI Kit Modal: Modal
-
Custom UI Modal: Forge bridge Modal
-
Byline Item: Confluence content byline item
-
-
All fullscreen modals exists with an enforced header
- Developers can nominate icon and name for this header. If none are declared, we will look for any logo or name stored by the app.
-
Improved modal close handling to prevent data loss
- Close button features a view.onClose method which allows a function to run before the close action is completed. This will support use cases like data saving methods.
For the EAP this feature is currently opt in. In 2 months, we will elevate to GA which will allow users to click out of all macro custom config modals.
- Close button features a view.onClose method which allows a function to run before the close action is completed. This will support use cases like data saving methods.
We understand that the enforced header is a new feature from connect fullscreen macros and this may require refactoring from partners. This enforcement was included for accessibility and UX consistency for in-product experiences to ensure we can provide the most seamless experience for end users.
We’re looking forward to your feedback! Sign up for the EAP here.
