UI Page not rendering when passing parameters from UI action

[ray evans]

Hi

I have a UI action (client with Onclick) on Incident, in which I am trying to pass the SysId and CI to a UI page. However, the dialog window does not render unless I remove the "dialog.addParam" lines

function updateAsset(){

 var sys_id = g_form.getUniqueValue();

 var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow('update_asset');

 dialog.setTitle("Update Asset");

 dialog.setHeight(800);

 dialog.setWidth(600);

 dialog.addParam('sys_id', sys_id);

 dialog.addParam('ci', cmdb_ci);

 dialog.render();

}

Can someone please point me in the right direction as to what I'm doing wrong? And also how to populate fields on the UI page with these values?

Thanks

Ray

@ray evans 

you are not passing the field value and hence it's failing there since you just added variable there but didn't declare it

update as this

function updateAsset(){
var sys_id = g_form.getUniqueValue();

var cmdb_ci = g_form.getValue('cmdb_ci');
var dialog = new GlideDialogWindow('update_asset');
dialog.setTitle("Update Asset");
dialog.setHeight(800);
dialog.setWidth(600);
dialog.addParam('sys_id', sys_id);
dialog.addParam('ci', cmdb_ci);
dialog.render();
}

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar 

It's still not opening correctly:

@ray evans 

I believe I answered your original question i.e. UI page was not rendering.

Next you need to debug the UI page

[ray evans]

@Ankur Bawiskar :Rendering' was obviously not the correct term

can you please advise the correct syntax to retrieve these values in the UI page?

I have the following lines in the client script:

var sys_id = GlideDialogWindow.getWindow(window).getParameter('sys_id');

var cmdb_ci = GlideDialogWindow.getWindow(window).getParameter('ci');
