Ui action redirect to Catalog Item form and populate the fields

[KrutikaH]

Hello ServiceNow community developers,

 Scenario: We have one table called Pipeline request under that when we click on Ui action (travel plan) so it will redirect to the catalog item page(Create Travel Plan Fulfiller Only) and auto populate the fields of pipeline request table as we have 4 fields common in both the table so we have to auto populate and able to Submit the catalog Item form.

I create one UI action So redirect to catalog form is working with this script but auto populate of fields and submittion is not working.

UI action Script:

var catalogItemName = "Fulfiller Only - Travel Request";

var catalogItemSysId = "";

// Retrieve Catalog Item Sys ID

var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_cat_item');

gr.addQuery('name', catalogItemName);

gr.query();

if (gr.next()) {

    catalogItemSysId = gr.getValue('sys_id');

}

// Get field values from the current form

var travelerEID = current.getValue("u_traveler_eid");

var homeCountryLocation = current.getValue("u_home_country_location");

var travelAssignmentCategory = current.getValue("u_travel_assignment_category");

var chargeCode = current.getValue("u_charge_code");

gs.addInfoMessage("my msg value " + travelerEID + " === " + homeCountryLocation + "  =====  " + travelAssignmentCategory + "  ==  " + chargeCode);

// Construct the URL for redirection

var catalogURL = "/com.glideapp.servicecatalog_cat_item_view.do?v=1&sysparm_id="+ catalogItemSysId;

catalogURL += "&sysparm_traveler_eid=" + encodeURIComponent(travelerEID);

catalogURL += "&sysparm_home_country_location=" + encodeURIComponent(homeCountryLocation);

catalogURL += "&sysparm_travel_assignment_category=" + encodeURIComponent(travelAssignmentCategory);

catalogURL += "&sysparm_charge_code=" + encodeURIComponent(chargeCode); // Passing charge code

// Redirect the user

gs.addInfoMessage("Redirecting to Create Travel Plan...");

action.setRedirectURL(catalogURL);

Thanks for your help

Hi 

Write a onLoad client script to autopopulate the values

function onLoad() {

    var travelerEID = getParameterValue('sysparm_traveler_eid');

    var homeCountryLocation = getParameterValue('sysparm_home_country_location');

    var travelAssignmentCategory = getParameterValue('sysparm_travel_assignment_category');

    var chargeCode = getParameterValue('sysparm_charge_code');

    g_form.setValue('<variable_name>', travelerEID); // replace variable name

    g_form.setValue('<variable_name>', homeCountryLocation); // replace variable name

    g_form.setValue('<variable_name>', travelAssignmentCategory); // replace variable name

    g_form.setValue('<variable_name>', chargeCode); // replace variable name

}

function getParameterValue(name) {

    var url = top.location.href;

    var value = new URLSearchParams(url).get(name);

    if (value) {

        return value;

    }

    if (!value) {

        var gUrl = new GlideURL();

        gUrl.setFromCurrent();

        value = gUrl.getParam("sysparm_id");

        return value;

    }

}

@KrutikaH 

for auto populating you should write onLoad catalog client script which gets the value from URL and set it
