How add dynamic "sys_id" on a URL to a catalog variable?

[velvizhisujatha]

Hi Team, 

I would like to know how can I route to Service Portal using a URL embedded to a catalog variable. 

For eg. I have a preferred contact variable, where I have added a URL on that annotation part but I'm unable to route to the logged in user user profile. 

On click of the hyperlink it should route to the "sp?id=user_profile&sys_id=" only if I pass a static value I'm able to get to the user profile page. What syntax is required to make it dynamic on a variable?

Please help!

Hi,

how have you added the link?

I doubt you can make it dynamic

Hello Ankur, 

I have added it in source code in instructions under Help tag, 

<p><span style="color: red; font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: helvetica;"><strong> To change the preferred contact number: </strong></span><a style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" title="Click here" href="sp?id=user_profile&sys_id=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #113285; background: white;">Click here</span></a></p>

Will javascript:gs.getUserID() work if added next to sys_id?

Thanks!

annotation won't work in portal.

you can try that but I don't think it would evaluate to logged in user sysId

Thanks for ur responses! It didn't work as u have said! I will to create a widget and add it to the variable below that. 

If possible kindly share the inputs in achieving it using widget scripting as I'm not into it much!
