How to do routing in an iframe?

To update route of the parent window through the iframe, you need to send a message from the iframe to the parent window. You can use the method window.top.postMessage to send a message from a child component to a parent component. For example:

window.top.postMessage({for: "workspace-shell", url: "/" }, "*")

1. message : The message to be sent. Here the message is {for: "workspace-shell", url: "/"} where:

   • for represents the parent window.
   • url represents the destination URL.

2. targetOrigin : The URL of the target window. Here the URL is "*".

Note: All the values must be of variable type string.
