Go to page button action is not supported in interactive PDF warning

Hi!

I have a problem with the exportation of an Indesign document where I'm creating some buttons, I already used the option to have hyperlinks to link the page and create bookmarks, but nothing worked. 

Every time I try to export the document I have the same warning 'The Go To Page button action is not supported in PDF. The button appearance will be preserved but its interactivity will be dropped'

Can someone help me with this? 

I have the 20.2 version of Indesign

So, I found the solution, I need it just to save the document on my laptop and then create the buttons and export it as a PDF interactive. If the document is in the cloud is not possible to export with the option for the buttons.

But I also follow this for the creation of the buttons thank you!

The action "Go to Page" in PDF is in fact not supported.

You need to use "Go to Destination" action instead. But first, defined "New Hyperlink Destination" as Type: "Page" > Page > X. Then complete the action by selecting this destination.

Use a "simple" button – no interactivity – a word or words or a button shape or image.
