Pass Data Variable from Server Script to HTML <a href="xxxx"> in Widget

[Community Alums]

Need Some Help:

I'm trying to pull a specific record that is on the User table and place it in a <a href="xxxx"> on the Service Portal.

Below is the code that I have already and where I'm looking to place it. Unfortunately, It's not populating anything.

• When I run the Server Script in the Background Scripts and print the record, it displays correctly.

• This leads me to believe that I don't have the correct code for the Binding Markup. 

Server Script:

function() {
	
data.ucsc = ucscLink;

//Get the UCSC URL
	
	var currentUser = gs.getUserID();

	var ucscGR = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
	ucscGR.addQuery('sys_id', currentUser);
    ucscGR.query();

    if (ucscGR.next()){
        
        var ucscLink = ucscGR.company.u_custom_field;
	
    } 
		

}

HTML:

<div>
<div class="dropdown" align="center">
    <button class="btn-lg btn-danger" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown"><i class="m-b fa fa-cogs fa-4x" style="color:white"></i><br><STRONG>CONTROL</STRONG>
 </button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" align="center">
      <li><a href="#">Link 1</a></li>
    <li class="divider"></li>
    <li><a href="#">Link 2</a></li>
    <li><a href="{{data.ucsc}}">UC Self-Care</a></li>

  </ul>

  </div>

</div>

Hi Jonathan,

what if you try the following?

function() {

    //Get the UCSC URL
    var currentUser = gs.getUserID();

    var ucscGR = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
    ucscGR.addQuery('sys_id', currentUser);
    ucscGR.query();

    if (ucscGR.next()){
        
        var ucscLink = ucscGR.company.u_custom_field;
	
    } 
		
    data.ucsc = ucscLink;

}

Then replace Link 1 in your HTML with data.ucscLink and wrapped in double curly brackets.

For some reason the syntaxt breaks here in the posts on the community...hence I mention the double curly brackets seperately.

Does it now display the link?

Warm regards,

Stijn

Where is data.ucsc in HTML ? We have to add it in curly brackets in HTML
