Catalog Item widget check box with hyperlink

[Dead Blade]

This is a followup to https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=76c2f09edb28d410414eeeb5ca96...

I have added a Macro with Label to a catalog item and using a widget for the URL Link.  The widget creates the checkbox.  How to I script and capture the widget checkbox as "true" in the workflow If activity?

Currently capturing the Macro with Label variable in the IF activity not working.

  answer = ifScript();

  function ifScript() {
    if (current.variables.var_name == 'true') {
        return 'yes';
     }
     return 'no';
  }

Example of widget from other post:

<div>
<input type="checkbox">Your Text <a href="www.google.com">To Do & not To Do</a><br>
</div>

Why didnt you create a checkbox as a variable?

[Dead Blade]

I tried that first, but I need a URL link on the variable so that the customer can check the box and/or go the the URL and review information.

But this wont work in portal, if in future you want to use portal.

I would suggest adding checkbox variable. And add the hyperlinks to the description of the catalog item, so that users can click on it.

If that doesn't work for you, create the checkbox variable and below that add the Macro, which will say Click to view the LINK

Hello @Dead Blade 

Instead of doing so many things, like creating Micro and All.

Why you did not create a simple checkbox and make its Lable as Link.

Please the below "Priority" field on the incident form, it will appear in blue color, if you click on it, it will redirect you to a Knowledge Article.

Please refer below image

If you Right Click on "Priority">> Configure Label, you will get a URL field where you can give the URL.

Try it once, you will get help from it.

As creating Micro is difficult and complex to manage.

Please Mark it helpful/correct if my answer helps in any way to resolve your query.
Reach out to me if any more help required.
