Good morning community,

is there any way to open a URL that is in Notes of an Alarm by clicking on the alarm status table?

You can fire a script from the onDoubleClicked extension function on the alarm status table, the script can read the alarm notes by using code similar to this:

```auto
from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.alarming.config import CommonAlarmProperties

queryResult = system.alarm.queryStatus(path="*"+path+"*",state=['ActiveAcked'])
notes = queryResult[0].getAckData().get(CommonAlarmProperties.AckNotes)
system.perspective.print(str(notes))

```

Then you can use something along these lines to open that webpage in a new tab:

```auto
import webbrowser

webbrowser.open_new_tab(notes)

```

the path should be the url? or the displayPath filter?
