# Embedded Host Actions (/docs/embedded-host-actions) Apps running inside the embedded workspace runtime can ask the host app to open native drawers on top of the iframe. Import these helpers from `@andibase/hooks` inside your app code: ```tsx import { openDataRecordForm, openInlineAgentChat, useAndibaseRefreshOnReturn, } from "@andibase/hooks"; ``` Open the record form drawer [#open-the-record-form-drawer] Use `openDataRecordForm()` to open the schema-driven record form drawer for a data definition. Create mode: ```tsx openDataRecordForm({ definitionHandle: "customer", defaultValues: { firstName: "Ada", active: true, }, }); ``` Edit mode: ```tsx openDataRecordForm({ mode: "edit", definitionHandle: "customer", recordId: "rec_123", defaultValues: { firstName: "Ada", active: true, }, }); ``` Notes: * `definitionHandle` is always required. * Edit mode requires `recordId`. * `defaultValues` is optional in both modes. * The drawer is opened by the host page, not by the iframe itself. * If the app should reload data after the drawer closes, prefer `useAndibaseRefreshOnReturn(loadData)` over a raw `window.focus` listener. Open the inline agent chat drawer [#open-the-inline-agent-chat-drawer] Use `openInlineAgentChat()` to open the full-screen inline agent chat drawer with the same host chat UI used elsewhere in the product. ```tsx openInlineAgentChat({ agentHandle: "support-assistant", }); ``` Optionally open a specific chat id: ```tsx openInlineAgentChat({ agentHandle: "support-assistant", chatId: "chat_existing_01", }); ``` Notes: * The active chat id is stored in host memory, not in the URL. * The drawer includes its own close button. * History and “new chat” actions stay inside the drawer instead of navigating the iframe. * If chat actions should trigger a data refresh when the user returns to the app, use `useAndibaseRefreshOnReturn()` instead of unconditional iframe focus handlers. Availability [#availability] These helpers are available in the embedded runtime import map alongside `@andibase/ui`. * See [Apps](/docs/apps) for the embedded runtime contract. * See [Get started (for AI Agents)](/docs/agent-get-started) for the runtime summary. ## Documentation Navigation Use these paths to traverse the relevant docs and generated API reference files for the app. -
