ScopedSessionDomain - Client
The ScopedSessionDomain script include that contains client-side methods that provide functionality related to the current session domain.
This API is only available if the Domain Support - Domain Extensions Installer plugin (com.glide.domain.msp_extensions) plugin has been activated in the instance. In addition, the caller must have the admin role to access this API.
ScopedSessionDomain - getCurrentDomainID()
Returns the sys_id of the current domain for the logged-in user session.
The identifier that is returned depends on the domain type and the instantiation of that
domain.
- If the user is configured in the global domain, and does not use the domain picker to switch domains, the method returns null.
- If the user uses the domain picker to switch to the global domain, the method returns the string "global".
- For all other domains, the method returns the sys_id of that domain.
To access this method from a client-side script, you must use GlideAjax() to invoke it. To
invoke this method from a server-side script, use something similar to the following to
instantiate the object and access the
method.
var ssg = new global.ScopedSessionDomain();
domainID = ssg.getCurrentDomainID();| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| None |
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| String | Sys_id of the session domain of the current logged-in user. This is the same information that appears in the domain picker. |
This example shows how to call the getCurrentDomainID() method from a client-side script.
// This example is calling the script include in a client script.
// This particular record is within the "Service Portal - Standard Ticket" scope.
// To reproduce this example:
// 1. Change application scope to "Service Portal - Standard Ticket"
// 2. Navigate to Client Script table and open a new form and name it anything
// 3. Set table=ticket_configuration (this table is within the same scope)
// 4. Set UI type=Desktop and Type=onLoad
// 5. Populate the script field with the script above
// 6. Navigate to the ticket_configuration table and open any form.
//
// This will trigger the client script, invoke the API, and pop up a browser alert containing the sys_id of the user's current domain
function onLoad() {
var ga = new GlideAjax("global.ScopedSessionDomain"); // Set the script include
ga.addParam("sysparm_name", "getCurrentDomainID"); // Set the getCurrentDomainID method
ga.getXML(getResponse);
function getResponse(response) {
var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute('answer');
alert(answer); // Pops up the sys_id of the domain record
}
}
