How to redirect from a UI Page to a service catalog item form

[johannes5]

Hi ServiceNow Community Developers

Is there a way to redirect from a UI Page to service catalog item form? I am able to do this from a UI Action however I am not able to do it coming from a UI Page. Basically what I would like to accomplish is after populating the fields in the UI page when I click OK I would like to switch to the service catalog item form view with the fields from the UI page auto populating the variables on the catalog item form. As I said with a UI action from a form I am able to do this - when I click the button I get switched to catalog item form view and all the fields that I want to carryover and they auto populate the catalog item form. Would you please advise if there is a way to accomplish the same functionality coming from a UI page.

Thanks,

Johannes

Hi Johannes,

You may find the below thread helpful.

Is it possible to redirect to a map page from client script of a UI page

As Pradeep mentioned, you could do this with a window.location = 'some URL'; to get to the location.

Getting the fields to auto-populate is going to be a bit more challenging. One approach I could see is pass all your variable values in the URL.

var url = '?sysparm_count=' + g_form.getValue('count') + '&sysparm_user=' + g_form.getValue('user') ... ;

Then on the catalog item, use an onLoad client script to grab them and fill them in.

var gURL = new GlideURL();

gURL.setFromCurrent();

g_form.setValue('count', gURL.getParam("sysparm_count"));

// Add other parameters & variables here

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your responses.

This is what I have inside the client script part of the UI page but it does not seem to be working:

var url =

  'com.glideapp.servicecatalog_cat_item_view.do?sysparm_id=617eb4d60f2b56001820e388b1050e3f' +

  '&sysparm_consumable='+asset_id +

  '&sysparm_building='+to_building +

  '&sysparm_quantity='+quantity +

  '&sysparm_business_unit='+business_unit;

  window.location = url;

Any idea what is it I am doing wrong? Kindly advise.

Thanks,

Johannes

Hi Johannes,

What is it doing (or not doing?)

Is that the sys_id of the catalog item or record producer (sc_cat_item) record where you want to land?
