Just wondering if it was possible redirect to a webpage from a button? I realize I can add a web viewer component but wanted to open the page in the default browser. ---

I typed in “button open hyper link” But I was expecting to find a button that opened a link and should have realized that it’s an action that can be used. So basically I was already looking in the wrong place. I was focusing on the button being the answer when it was the action that I should have looked for. This makes much more sense! So I can bind this action to all kinds of different things. ---
