How to retrieve value on UI Page from setPreference client script?

I'm creating a pop-up window that will ultimately change certain details on the respective form. 

 

I'm sending over the sys_id within the client script but I'm not sure how to retrieve that value to use it on the UI Pages client script. 

 

Is this not the right way to retrieve the value?

 

Client script with Set Preference:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
   if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
      return;
   }

   //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
	if(g_form.getValue('type') == 'no_conversion')
	{
		var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow("no_conversion_popup");
		dialog.setSize(600,600);
		dialog.setTitle("No Conversion Selected"); 
		dialog.setPreference('sys_id', g_form.getUniqueValue()); //pass current object id
		dialog.render(); //Open the dialog
	}
   
}

 

UI Page Script:

function continueOK() {
	alert("OK clicked");
	GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy();
}
function continueCancel() {
	var gdw = GlideDialogWindow.get(); // attempting to get the sys_id value
	var sys_id = gdw.getPreference('sys_id'); // attempting to get the sys_id value
	alert("Cancel clicked - sys id is: " + sys_id);
	
	GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy();
}

Hi @MBarrott 

 

 

 

To retire the sys_id in Page side you need to access like this 

<j:set var="jvar_sys_id" value="${RP.getWindowProperties().get('sys_id')}"/>  
<input id="record_sys_id" type="hidden" value="${jvar_sys_id}" />

You need to make little bit change on Ui page code as below

HTML  code : 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">
<j:set var="jvar_sys_id" value="${RP.getWindowProperties().get('sys_id')}"/>   
<input id="record_sys_id" type="hidden" value="${jvar_sys_id}" />
<div>
  <h2>Are you sure you want to cancel this UAR?</h2>
  <button id="yes_button" class="btn btn-danger" onclick="continueOK();">Yes</button>
  <button id="no_button" class="btn btn-secondary" onclick="continueCancel();">No</button>
</div>
</j:jelly>

 

 

there is no change in Client script of Ui page 

 

function continueOK() {
	alert("OK clicked");
	GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy();
}
function continueCancel() {
	var gdw = GlideDialogWindow.get(); // attempting to get the sys_id value
	var sys_id = gdw.getPreference('sys_id'); // attempting to get the sys_id value
	alert("Cancel clicked - sys id is: " + sys_id);
	
	GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy();
}
