How to check and fix broken links?

[sifynm]

                  Is there a way to check and fix a broken link? How to detect the same and automatically fix it using a script dynamically? I have referred to some of the documentations here https://community.servicenow.com/thread/177341?q=Broken%20links   but was not of much help as it is not answered. Is there a way I can schedule a job to do a daily, weekly and monthly check and generate a report or trigger an alert when there is a broken link found.

Hi Manjunath,

Following links should be helpful. They use client side jquery to determine the link broken or not.

jquery - Checking if a URL is broken in Javascript - Stack Overflow

javascript - detect external broken links - Stack Overflow

javascript - How to check broken links in a webpage using Casperjs? - Stack Overflow

JavaScript/jQuery check broken links - Stack Overflow

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also hit Like and Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

Thanks

Hi,

                  So, copying and pasting the answers of the JavaScript/jQuery program specified as solutions on ServiceNow would help. Is my understanding correct?

Hi Nandan,

That links should help you proceed in right direction I think so. Also I think there is no clear solution to achieve this in ServiceNow itself without using jQuery plugin etc. So you can try that option as well.
