Trying to parse parameters from a url to client script on a catalog item

[archanachil]

Hi ,

We are using an ui action with with we are sending the parameter via URL to a client script on a catalog item.

though the url is having parameters but the cilent is not picking it up .

for reference providing the script below.

please help with any suggestions you have!

function onLoad() {

    alert("hi 1");

  var metrixValue = g_form.getParameter('sysparm_metricValue');

alert("hi 2");

  if (metrixValue) {

    alert("hi 3");

    g_form.setValue('request_summary_2', metrixValue); // Replace 'request_summary_2' with the correct variable name

  }

}    

OR

function onLoad() {

alert("Hi");

   var ABC1 = getParmVal('sysparm_metricValue');

   alert("HI2");

   var ABC2 = getParmVal('sysparm_metricValue2');

   if(ABC1){

    alert("Hi3");

      g_form.setValue('request_summary_2',ABC1);

   }

   if(ABC2){

      g_form.setValue('cio_action_comments_2',ABC2);

   }

}

function getParmVal(name){

    var url = document.URL.parseQuery();

    if(url[name]){

        return decodeURI(url[name]);

    }

    else{

        return;

    }

}

we tried various ways , didn't workout can anyone let us know you thoughts on this!!

Thanks in advance!

Hi @archanachil ,

If you have the parameters in your URL, you can use this logic to fetch them. I've used it in one of my project and it works.

 var gUrl = top.location.href; //get the URL
//fetch the parameter, add the correct name of your parameter instead of parameter_name1.
    var name1 = new URLSearchParams(gUrl).get("parameter_name1"); 

                                

Thanks,

Hope it helps.

Hello @community Alums,

In my scenario how to get the unique dashboard sys_id from the Navigator History URL.

urlLIKE$pa_dashboard.do?sysparm_dashboard=^sys_updated_onRELATIVEGT@month@ago@6

To capture content actively utilized by the business, the migration scope will be derived from the system’s navigation logs.

• Data Source: sys_ui_navigator_history
• Parameters: Filter for URLs containing pa_dashboard.do?sysparm_dashboard= with a Updated date within the last 6 months.
• Methodology: Programmatically extract unique Dashboard Sys IDs from the URL strings to establish the migration batch.
