How to retrieve URL parameters in a scoped app in an onLoad client script

[Sheryl Lyke2]

Within a scoped app, I have a UI action on a custom table form with the following code:

 var nameCI = current.name;
 var comp = current.invoice_parent.company;
 var url = 'cmdb_ci.do?sys_id=-1&sysparm_view=contract_management&sysparm_view_forced=true?sysparm_CIname=' + nameCI + '?sysparm_Comp=' + comp;

 action.setRedirectURL(url);
 action.setReturnURL(current);

This works. Then I have an onLoad client script where I want to take the parameter values being sent in the url to populate fields. I've seen similar code working so I don't know if it's because I'm in a scoped app but it's not working. It doesn't populate. Even the addinfoMessage or setMandatory pieces don't work. I had an addInfoMessage at the start and that did work so I know the script is triggering. Any idea why I can't use the getParameterValue function here? Or does someone have another way to send values from a UI action to a client script in a scoped app? I've tried setting isolate script to true and this also does not have any effect. Thanks!

function onLoad() {
	g_form.setMandatory('model_id', true);
        var nm = getParameterValue('sysparm_CIname');
   
    if (nm) {
        g_form.setValue('name', nm);
    } else {
        g_form.addInfoMessage('no name');
    }
    var comp = getParameterValue('sysparm_Comp');
    if (comp) {
        g_form.setValue('company', comp);
    }
}

function getParameterValue(name) {
    var url = document.URL.parseQuery();
    if (url[name]) {
        return decodeURI(url[name]);
    } else {
        return;
    }
}

Try var json = new global.JSON(); alert(json.stringify(url));

/*Tested on PDI. Thanks to Ankur*/

function getParameterValue(name) {
var glide_url = new GlideURL();
glide_url.setFromCurrent();
var target = glide_url.getParam(name);
if (target) {
return decodeURI(target);
} else {
return;
}
}

Hi,

if on your client script showing info message in blue color then you have to set 'glide.script.block.client.globals' into  sys_properties.LIST and set value to false

and write

function getParmVal(sys_id)
    {
    var url = document.URL.parseQuery();    
    if(url[sys_id])
    {
            //return decodeURI(url[sys_id]);
        alert(decodeURI(url[sys_id]));
    }
        else
        {
            return;
        }
        
        
    }

This works for me. Hope it will works for you as well

Thanks

sn_si.glide.script.block.client.globals was set to false. Unfortunately this didn't work for me with this code

Hi Sheryl,

document object won't work in scoped app

Can you update code as below and check once. this should work; try either of the approach

function onLoad() {
	g_form.setMandatory('model_id', true);
        var nm = getParameterValue('sysparm_CIname');
   
    if (nm) {
        g_form.setValue('name', nm);
    } else {
        g_form.addInfoMessage('no name');
    }
   
var glideURL = new GlideURL();
glideURL.setFromCurrent();
var comp = glideURL.getParam("sysparm_Comp");

 if (comp) {
        g_form.setValue('company', comp);
    }


}

OR

function onLoad() {
	g_form.setMandatory('model_id', true);
        var nm = getParameterValue('sysparm_CIname');
   
    if (nm) {
        g_form.setValue('name', nm);
    } else {
        g_form.addInfoMessage('no name');
    }
   
var url = top.location.href;
var comp = new URLSearchParams(url).get("sysparm_Comp");

 if (comp) {
        g_form.setValue('company', comp);
    }

}

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