I want to have a window pop up after a task is saved

I want the user to save a task and ifs its a certain task type (a custom field) then I need a popup window with the ID of the task on it like

https://www.whatever.com?id=TASK_ID

This window has info for the user to fill out on another system so I cant automate it.

I have found many places I can put this window.open() but no where that has access to the newly created task's ID.

I wanted to add it to the saveAndClose() but it still doesn't have access to the task id.

why not just provide calculated custom URL field https://www.whatever.com?id=TASK_ID as tasks custom field?

Good idea but I cant give them an excuse for not doing it. If its just a link on the screen it will be forgotten.

unfortunately, if users are neither motivated nor forced to copy/click the value already available on the screen, they will always find an excuse despite any tech/dev efforts and interface attractions that could be offered to them - the solution is rather organizational
