AdaptiveCardActions OpenUrl class is missing var "url" in __init__ method

The Problem

In the __init__ method for class OpenUrl in Adaptive Card Actions the variable url is not being set. This results in the card being "malformed" as the Action UrlSubmit element will be missing the url attribute.

I am not entirely sure if I am doing something wrong while instantiating OpenUrl. I am just calling it like this,

from webexteamssdk.cards.actions import OpenUrl
actions = [
    OpenUrl("https://myurl",title="Click Me")
]

And this does not work.

Workaround:

  • Just use Markdown syntax in a TextBlock element. TextBlock("[Click Me](https://myurl)") OR
  • Create the json body using the Card Designer if this absolutely needs to be in the ActionSet And if there is any dynamic content, use string replace

Potential Fix??

I was able to sort of "fix" it by

  1. Adding self.url = url in the __init__ method.
  2. Appending "url" to the list being assigned to simple_properties in the super().__init__ call.

Here's an excerpt from file actions.py

class OpenUrl(AdaptiveCardComponent):
    """Open URL Action."""
    type = "Action.OpenUrl"

    def __init__(self, url, title=None, iconURL=None):
        self.title = title
        self.iconURL = iconURL

        super().__init__(
            serializable_properties=[],
            simple_properties=['type', 'title', 'iconURL'],
        )

Here's what I did to make it work

class OpenUrl(AdaptiveCardComponent):
    """Open URL Action."""
    type = "Action.OpenUrl"

    def __init__(self, url, title=None, iconURL=None):
        self.title = title
        self.iconURL = iconURL
        # Set variable url
        self.url = url

        super().__init__(
            serializable_properties=[],
            # Append string "url" to the list
            simple_properties=['url','type', 'title', 'iconURL'],
        )

Just noticed the same problem as you did! Kinda breaking the purpose of a OpenUrl action without an url...

Closing this issue. It looks like it was resolved in #175.
