Not able retrieve URL Parameters through onload client script IN Portal

R Akash · ‎04-19-2022

Hello,

I have a requirement where i need to populate category for one of the catalog item on load where values are coming as URL Parameters.

I have written onLoad client script to get URL Parameters, but its not working in portal.

Onload URL:

/fuse?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id=34b896be1b6320104c6a54ea234bcbe2&sysparm_category=Benifits

client script:

function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
var category=getParmVal("sysparm_category");
alert(category);
}

Do "getParmVal" will work in portal, if not is there any way to access these parameters onload of catalog item in portal?

Thanks

Akash

Hi Akash,

I've used the following script. In the script, I'm setting the value to field named "field1" on the form.

function onLoad() {
    alert("hi");
    g_form.setValue('field1', getParameterValue('sysparm_category'));


    function getParameterValue(name) {
        var url = top.location.href;
        var value = new URLSearchParams(url).get(name);
        if (value) {
            return value;
        }
        if (!value) {
            try {
                var gUrl = new GlideURL();
                gUrl.setFromCurrent();
                value = gUrl.getParam(name);
                if (typeof value == 'undefined') {
                    return '';
                } else {
                    return value;
                }
            } catch (e) {}
        }
    }
}

Execution:

sp?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id=<sys_id of form>&sysparm_category=Benifits
