# cabrillo.modal - Client

Cabrillo JS functions for presenting web content inside of native modals.

**Parent Topic:**[Client mobile API reference](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/api-reference/cllent-mobile-api-reference/api-client-mobile.md)

## cabrillo.modal - dismissModal\(Object data\)

Use to dismiss a modal that has been presented with the presentModal\(\) function.

A presented modal is responsible for dismissing itself and passing any results back to the presenting context. The dismissModal\(\) function must be called from the presented context not from the presenting context.

|----|----|-----------|
|data|Object|Optional. An object to pass back to the presenting context when the presented context dismisses itself.|

|Type|Description|

|promise|If successful, an unresolved object, otherwise an error.|

```
// Any object can be passed back to the presenting context when the presented context dismisses itself.
var results = {
    team: 'Mobile'
    company: 'ServiceNow'
}

cabrillo.modal.dismissModal(results).then(function() {
    console.log('Modal was dismissed and results were passed to presenting context.');
}, function(error) {
    console.log(error);
});
```

Present a native modal that loads a custom URL. This presents a custom Service Portal page in a form sheet style modal. The promise is fulfilled when the modal is dismissed. See the dismissModal\(\) function for custom dismissal capabilities.

```
cabrillo.modal.presentModal('Portal Page',
    '/$sp.do?id=my_modal_page',
    cabrillo.modal.CLOSE_BUTTON_STYLE_CLOSE,
    cabrillo.modal.MODAL_PRESENTATION_STYLE_FORM_SHEET
).then(function(response) {
    // The results from the modal are in a results key on the response object.
    var results = response && response.results ? response.results : null;

    if (results) {
        console.log('Modal dismissed with results.', results);
    } else {
        console.log('Modal dismissed without results.');
    }
}, function(error) {
    console.log(error);
});
