This Wiki article explains how to read URL parameters in a UI Page:

UI Pages - ServiceNow Wiki

Is this what you are looking for?

Hi Slava, I have not used a UI page yet and proceeding with dynamic pages. And, in a dynamic page, if I use window.location within script tag I am able to access the URL but cannot pass it to a Jelly variable.

Therefore, as an alternate I started checking if I can access the URL in a similar way within jelly tags but that does not work. Once, I am able to get the URL value within jelly tags, then I will proceed with split.

You can use the RP object to return the url as detailed in this kb article:

${RP.getReferringURL()} would return the url that got you to the page.

Hello Brad,

Thank you for showing your interest. I tried using the option you suggested but I come up with "view_content.do" instead of actual URL value.

Let me explain what I did and what I am expecting.

1. I have created a sample site using CMS named as "windowshopping" with a URL suffix as "shop".

2. Created a page as "main page" with URL suffix "main" and set it as the homepage of this site.

3. Created a dynamic block wherein I use below code in g:evaluate for accessing the URL and linked with "main page".

====================

var gr = "${jvar_RP.getReferringURL()}";

====================

Therefore, now whenever I access https://sandbox.service-now.com/shop, I want this URL value in my variable "gr" but it stores "view_content.do".

Please check if you can assist further.

Brgds, AM
