Popup Message after logging in to instance

Hi,

Can you please provide steps to create popup window with a message after logging in to instance?

Similar like this one: https://www.servicenowguru.com/system-definition/login-terms-conditions-dialog/

Thanks,

I have added a check so it will not run on login page. And changed to session variable so it will trigger each new login:

addLoadEvent(function () {
    var session = gs.getSession();
    if (session.getClientData('popup_triggered')) {
        return;
    }
    if ((window.name !== 'gsft_main') || (window.parent.document.URL.indexOf("login.do") > -1)) {
        console.log("Prevent popup in this window or on this page.");
        return;
    }

    session.putClientData('popup_triggered', 'true');


    //Ensure that we call the dialog for the correct frame
    if (window.frameElement) {
        if (window.frameElement.id == 'gsft_main') {
            showTerms();
        }
    }
    else if (!window.frameElement) {
        if (!$('gsft_main')) {
            showTerms();
        }
    }
});

Hi,

The same site provides a step-by-step to do similar:

I checked and they are describing about the config and they didn't listed how to create one unless I missed.

Thanks, I see the link you have provided has the code. Where do you modify to call your UI page after login.

Can you try create a UI Script with the following:

UI Type Desktop

Global checked/true

addLoadEvent(function () {
    //Ensure that we call the dialog for the correct frame
    if (window.frameElement) {
        if (window.frameElement.id == 'gsft_main') {
            showTerms();
        }
    }
    else if (!window.frameElement) {
        if (!$('gsft_main')) {
            showTerms();
        }
    }
});

var showTerms = function() {
    var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow('terms_and_conditions_dialog'); //Render the dialog containing the UI Page 'terms_and_conditions_dialog'
    dialog.setTitle('Terms and Conditions'); //Set the dialog title
    dialog.setSize(600, 600); //Set the dialog size
    dialog.removeCloseDecoration(); //Remove the dialog close icon
    dialog.setPreference('cancel_url', 'catalog_home.do?sysparm_view=catalog_default'); //Set optional cancel redirect URL
    dialog.render(); //Open the dialog
}
