I tried with this line, But after updating template list its taking me to the cluster list. Appreciate your help on this.

Solution

  • You can set data into route after updating form and coming back to list using History API . If your angular version >=7.2 You can save data in state.

    Or else you can use below approach of saving data into localStorage/ sessionStorage

    After saving/Updating data you can call this method before redirecting back to item listing page

     saveTabState(){
        const route = window.location.href;
        if(route.includes('templateform'))
        {
          localStorage.setItem('activeTabTemplate','true');
        }
        
      }
    

    In item listing page

    if(localStorage.getItem('activeTabTemplate')){
          this.activeTabTemplate = true;
          localStorage.removeItem('activeTabTemplate')
        }
    

    In template

    // for tab1:
    [ngClass]="!activeTabTemplate ? 'active' : ''"
    
    // tab2:
    [ngClass]="activeTabTemplate ? 'active' : ''"
