When you need to use Classic UI and read dialog values, you need to write a custom xtype. That is where yiu can add JS logic using values obtained from a classic UI component dialog.

There are events you can trigger for the dialogbox in classic ui. See this Example: [Adobe Experience Manager Help | Validating Adobe Experience Manager Classic UI dialog values ]

Similarly you can write some custom JavaScript and attache AJaX call to it.

Hope this helps
