Activate Lightning App Page

Activates a newly deployed Lightning App Page via browser automation so it appears in the App Launcher.

Prerequisites

• Browser session already established via Playwright (see CLAUDE.md)
• Page already deployed to org
• User logged into Salesforce

Steps

1. Navigate to Lightning App Builder

await page.goto("https://chbd12461--partial.sandbox.lightning.force.com/lightning/setup/FlexiPageList/home")
await asyncio.sleep(3)

2. Access iframe content

Setup pages render in an iframe:

iframe = await page.query_selector("iframe")
frame = await iframe.content_frame()

3. Find and click on the page

Replace

$ARGUMENTS

with the page name:

page_link = await frame.query_selector("a:has-text('$ARGUMENTS')")
await page_link.click()
await asyncio.sleep(3)

4. Click Edit button

Note the spaces in the value attribute:

edit_btn = await frame.query_selector("input[value=' Edit ']")
await edit_btn.click()
await asyncio.sleep(5)

5. Click Activation

Now in main page context, not iframe:

activation_btn = await page.wait_for_selector("button:has-text('Activation')")
await activation_btn.click()
await asyncio.sleep(3)

6. Save activation

Use the last Save button (the one in the dialog):

save_buttons = await page.query_selector_all("button:has-text('Save')")
await save_buttons[-1].click()
await asyncio.sleep(3)

7. Skip navigation menu prompt

skip_btn = await page.wait_for_selector("button:has-text('Skip and Save')")
await skip_btn.click()
await asyncio.sleep(2)

8. Verify

Take screenshot or look for "Activation successful" message:

await page.screenshot(path="/tmp/activation_result.png")

Result

• Page is now searchable in App Launcher
• Direct URL:

  /lightning/n/Page_Name
