ServiceNow Learning 58: Functionality of GlideNavigation-open & openPopup in ServiceNow

[Shamma Negi]

Hi All,

I have found a very good feature which runs in client side and can't be used in UI Action, Client Scripts or any Client-Side Scripting which allows you to redirect url.

g_navigation.open('incident_list.do?sysparm_query=active=true');

This shows how to open the list of active incidents within an instance and display the content in the current frame.

g_navigation.openPopup('incident_list.do?sysparm_query=active=true', 'Active Incidents', 'resizable,scrollbars,status', true);

This shows how to open the list of active incidents within a popup window called "Active Incidents", and enable the resizable, scrollbars, and status features on the window.

Very useful functions provided OOB.

Hope this helps you.

I hope this article helpful. Please mark it as helpful and bookmark if you like it.

@Shamma Negi ,
Thanks for sharing  such a good feature.

Just for testing purpose I tried openPopup().I exceuted it in Javascript executer(Ctrl+shift+J) but it seems it is not displaying window name as per parameter given.
Again one question,
Can we add more features of window other than resizable, scrollbars, and status?


Thanks

I tried this and it opened a popup for me and came as popup on same screen.

As of now, it provides these 4 parameters. I will share with you if I get anything extra on this.

Thanks for supporting.

Keep sharing and learning!!

Thanks,
