Hello,
1) Yes, bring in spUtil in a custom widget.
function(spUtil) {
spUtil.addInfoMessage(<add your message in here.... combination of string and variable values if needed>)
}
Server script will be used to grab things from the url if needed.
For example if you need the sys_id that's passed:
var sysid = $sp.getParameter('sys_id');
// do something with the sysid
2) The widget doesn't have to be placed at the top of the page. It will automatically display the info message at the top.
3) You don't need to clone the OOB widget. Use the widget instance options on the widget to redirect to the desired page:
Looking at the options you can use a custom url or set the page and what table to use when using the auto redirect on Successful Order option
Here is an example:
I set the options to use a Custom URL syntax setting page, table, sys_id, and an extra param showMessage.
Page = the page to redirect to. My example uses the page with "ticket" as the id.
Table = the incident table since this will be a record producer creating an incident
Sys_id = will be the incident record that was created as the end result of submission
showMessage = true. This is here because I'm using an OOB page and sometimes this page could be accessed from a different source and not necessarily after a catalog item submission
Server and Client controller scripts of the custom widget
Adding custom widget to the ticket form page
Setting the options on the SC Catalog Item widget instance
Url redirected to after successful catalog item submission
successful redirect to ticket form page with added info message
