It's the Demo Ghost !

I don't know why is this happen but there is one very strange relation between live demo and not live demo.

No matter how good you have tested the code of your demo, how many times you have recreated the actions you are going to show - there is always 'something' that happens in a real demo.

So the simple rule of the "Something" means - don't believe too much in the demo, there is always something that can happen.

Really really strange ...

Load dynamically JavaScript file inside Custom Action

This starts to be very common scenario in the SharePoint online projects: You want to have custom actions (“My Action”) that execute custom logic. The main challenge is how to load the JavaScript file with this custom logic (/sites/demo/SiteAssets/Actions/dts.demo.script.js) only when the custom action needs it. One approach described in many posts is to use a Script link.
