I am using the Polaris Modal web component in a Checkout UI Extension for the thank you and order status pages, and after reviewing the documentation, it appears that the modal can only be opened when a button is clicked.
Is it possible to open this modal directly without any button click?
Is there any workaround to achieve this?
I have already checked some older posts where people were asking for the same feature. I would like to request the Shopify team to please make this available soon.
At the moment, enabling programmatic modal opening isn’t something that’s on our roadmap. There’s a bit more info here:
That said, we are aware it’s something folks would like and it has been noted on our end. Hope this helps, let me know if I can clarify anything more on my end here
