URL From Arguments - With Javascript

[Community Alums]

Morning All,

So I've created a script include to look up a users end user portal from their company (custom field):

function getUserPortal() {
    var company = gs.getUser().getCompanyID();
    var portalSuffix = new GlideRecord('core_company');
    portalSuffix.get(company);
    if (company) {
		var portal = portalSuffix.u_end_user_portal.url_suffix;
		portal = (portalSuffix.u_end_user_portal.url_suffix) ? '/' + portal + '?sysparm_stack=no' : '/esp?sysparm_stack=no';
		return portal;
    } else {
        return '/esp?sysparm_stack=no';
    }
}

I am then calling this in a URL from Arguments as:

javascript:getUserPortal();

However all that ever loads is a new blank tab, I've tried with client callable enabled and disabled. I've reviewed the other app modules using javascript but just can't seem to get this to work. I verified in a background script the correct URL is being returned.

Any suggestions appreciated, Thank you.

Hi Asha,

The script itself is within the Global scope.

I added the logging as gs.log and found the following:

If I call within gs.print from a background script it evaluates correctly and updates the log

If I run the menu link as javascript:getUserPortal(); Nothing happens, the log doesn't update;

If I run the menu link as:

/core_company_list.do?sysparm_offset=&sysparm_list_mode=grid&sysparm_query=u_end_user_portalLIKEjavascript:getUserPortal();

It evaluates and updates the query but does not update the log.

I simplified my code just to make it cleaner but still no dice when using the menu just to call javascript:getUserPortal();

I tried calling it like the debug modules do as well, and still nothing javascript:window.top.getUserPortal(); and javascript:window.open(getUserPortal());

function getUserPortal() {

    var company = gs.getUser().getCompanyRecord();
    var endUserPortal = company.u_end_user_portal;
    var portalSuffix = endUserPortal.url_suffix;

    if (company) {
        var portal = portalSuffix;
        portal = (portalSuffix) ? '/' + portal + '?sysparm_stack=no' : '/esp?sysparm_stack=no';
        return portal;
    } else {
        return '/esp?sysparm_stack=no';
    }
}
