How to encode uri with javascript:gs.getUserID()

[davilu]

Our team is using the widget-data-table and trying to test the export functionality with a filter that has javascript:gs.getUserID().  When we try to export to Excel, it returns a Forbidden page.  When we take away "javascript:" it works, but the exported list of records seems to ignore that part of the filter.  Is there a way to encode the uri when a filter has "javascript:gs.getUserID()" within it?

What if you try is (dynamic) me instead. Does that have the same issue?

Hi Mike, thanks for the reply, our team is fairly confident that the reason this isn't working is due to a WAF issue.  We took a look at this article https://www.servicenow.com/community/developer-forum/how-to-encode-uri-with-javascript-amp-colon-gs-... and made the changes so that our query looks like subject_person!%3Djavascript%3Ags.getUserID().  When testing this in a personal dev instance, it works perfectly, but refuses to work in our development instance.
