Passing Values to script Include??

Tarun2 · ‎03-10-2020

Hi ,

I have a Requirement : when Ui Button is Clicked , it will Render a Ui Page with Dynamic Values .

Ui Page : will Fetch values of Specified Table from Script Include using GlideAjax.

Script Include : Has Code to glide Records from Specified Table and will Pass it to Ui page .

working fine .

(But I want Script Include to Glide Records from Different Tables . Before, i specified from which Table records needs to be Glide in Script Include .) now

Different Button-Clicks should Display Different Records in Ui Page .

More Info : I have 10 Tables , Each Table has a custom Ui Button .(ui actions)

Table 1 has ,Button 1

Table 2 has Button2

When Button 1 : OnClick() -Pass SysId of Table1 to Script Include ( i thought of Bussiness Rule )

Script include has Code to glide records in that Table .

Question :

Flow :

1.Ui Button will call Uipage

2. Ui page Will Call Script-Include(GlideAjax)--------------[ Here I want Dynamic Data ,When Different Buttons are clicked ]

3.What ever data Returned from Script-Include will be Displayed in Ui page .

How to Pass Dynamic Values to Script Include Without Disturbing this Flow ???

Kindly Help me ,

Any Suggestion is Appreciated .

Thankyou ,

are you using GlideDialogWindow in ui action ? if yes then you can send the table name from ui action to ui page ,

eg:

function commentsDialog() {
//Get the values to pass into the dialog
var tabName = g_form.getTableName();

//Initialize and open the Dialog Window
var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow("<ui page name>");
dialog.setTitle("Add Task Comments"); //Set the dialog title
dialog.setPreference("table_text", tabName );

dialog.render(); //Open the dialog
}

UI page:

HTML:

<g:ui_form>
  <!-- Get values from dialog preferences passed in -->

  <g:evaluate var="jvar_text"
    expression="RP.getWindowProperties().get('table_text')" />

one html field to store the table name , you can also make it as hidden html field

<g:ui_multiline_input_field name="tab_name" id="tab_name" label="table name" value="${jvar_text}" />
  
           <g:dialog_buttons_ok_cancel ok="return validateComments()"ok_type="button" cancel_type="button" />
        
</g:ui_form>

Access the variable value in client script of your UI Page:

function validateComments() {
   //Gets called if the 'OK' dialog button is clicked
   //Make sure dialog comments are not empty
   var tabName = gel("tab_name").value;

  var ga = new GlideAjax('HelloWorld');
ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'helloWorld');
ga.addParam('sysparm_user_name', tabName);
ga.getXML(HelloWorldParse);
 
function HelloWorldParse(response) {
  var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
  alert(answer); 

}



   GlideDialogWindow.get().destroy(); //Close the dialog window
  
}

Script Include:

var HelloWorld = Class.create();
HelloWorld.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
   helloWorld:function() { 

var tbName = this.getParameter('sysparm_user_name');

var gr = new GlideRecord(tbName);
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){

// further script 
}


return "Hello " + "!"; 

} ,
   _privateFunction: function() { // this function is not client callable     
    }
 });

Hope it will help you now.

you can mention directly on your client script of UI Page , it will work.

If my answer helped you, kindly mark it as correct and helpful.
