Hello. According to this documentation:

> **[Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://app.hubspot.com/myaccounts?next=developerdocs&redirect=%2Fmethods%2Fcrm-extensions%2Fcrm-extensions-overview)**

The onliest possible value for primar action type is IFRAME.

Maybe it possible to open our page not in pop-up window but in new tab instead. For many of our customers popup window is to small for working comfortable.

Hi [@vlad\_kud](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53074) , you cannot open up the popup in a new tab, it is only able to be opened in a popup within the contacts page. That said, there are other action types besides “IFRAME” that you can find outlined here: [Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/crm-extensions/crm-extensions-overview#action-types)

Hi @cbarley . I am not understanding what do you mean about  
\> only able to be opened in a popup within the contacts page  
As i see currently i can open popup window on Deals, Contacts and Company objects. And as i understand according documentation where is no way to open some page in new tab i can work only through modal window?

Sorry [@vlad\_kud](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53074) , I didn’t include the other objects in my statement, but this applies to contacts, companies, and deals. No you cannot open a page in a new tab with the CRM extensions, only through the modal window.
