I created a custom tab for customer edit page in backend like this:

app/code/Namespace/Module/view/adminhtml/layout/customer_index_edit.xml

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="admin-2columns-left" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd"> 
    <body>
           <referenceBlock name="customer_form">
             <block class="Namespace\Module\Block\Adminhtml\Edit\Tab\Vcard" name="customer_edit_tab_vcard" >
              <action method="setTabLabel">
                  <argument name="label" xsi:type="string">V-Card</argument>
              </action>
            </block>
          </referenceBlock>
    </body>
</page>

When i opened the customer edit page, the first tab that is active is Customer View

example

How can i set my custom tab that is active?

  • Do you mean you want set your custom tab as active by default when you edit any customer?

  • So when you will get param from url then only your tab will show active. Is it correct?

Reset to default

In Magento 2 backend forms, by default, the active tab is set based on which module loads first in the sequence.

If you check addTab method in Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Tab\TabInterface\Tab class you will see that logic setup first added tab to active status if the active tab does not determine.
