How to get current URL from UI action

[saranyavs]

Hi,

We have a ui action in List context menu, and need to access the current URL for a requirement. Is there any OOB script to fetch the current URL in UI action. Please help.

Sure so you could use the below code to get your sysparm variable value:

var url = "alm_hardware_list.do?sysparm_query=u_hardware_type%3DMonitor%5Einstall_status%3D6%5Esubstatus%3Davailable&sysparm_rit=1251182f1b124990f576dd31b24bcbfc&sysparm_first_row=1&sysparm_view=";
gs.info(getParameterValue('sysparm_rit'));


function getParameterValue(name) {
    name = name.replace(/[[]/, "\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\]");
    var regexS = "[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)";
    var regex = new RegExp(regexS);
    var results = regex.exec(url);

    return (results ? unescape(results[1]) : "");
}

Result:

If this answer is helpful please mark correct and helpful!

What's the Configurable Workspace solution for this?
gs.action.getGlideURI() doesn't work, and *.location.href only works client side.
