Hi @chirag-vashisht,

Could you please let us know if you're still experiencing this problem, and what version of pa11y are you using?

Thanks!

I've also raised this issue with Pa11y, and tested locally, and this issue has to be coming from pa11y dashboard, and not from pa11y itself. an FYI

Hi all,

Mystery solved! I think I know what the problem may be. Pa11y-dashboard v2 uses pa11y v4, which supports actions since version 4.3.0 if I remember correctly.

Unfortunately the navigate action was added at a later date, and it's only available since pa11y version 5:
https://github.com/pa11y/pa11y/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#500-beta6-pre-release-2018-01-16

We recently released pa11y-dashboard 3 which uses pa11y 5 to run the tests. If you upgrade to this version, you should be able to use the navigate action.

@josebolos Thanks - I'll give that a go and respond back shortly !

@josebolos We've updated our pa11y-dashboard to version 3.0.0 - and I still get the same error.
