In Sage CRM customizations most of the time we need parameters to be used in the code. As far as server side programming is concerned, there are several ways by which we can get URL values and use them. Complexity increases when it comes to client-side scripting. One needs to write code which parses URL and extracts required value from it.
New Stuff: Notify if Quote is expired in Sage CRM
Client-side API introduced in Sage CRM 7.2 onwards. These additional parameters may also be added to URLs when a page is redirected. These parameters can be read by the Client-Side API just like any system parameter or context information.
The API has a method called “getArgs()” that allows the URL to be parsed very easily. Browser Console can be used to view all the parameters which we can find the value of. Refer below image.
For example, we have taken the “Act” Parameter which display the Act value in On-screen coaching.
Also, we can add a custom parameter in URL and show the value in On-screen coaching.
In the below screenshot, we have added the “Flag” parameter in URL and value is Test.
Here is the code for accessing URL parameters.
var contextInfo = crm.getArgs();
crm.infoMessage(contextInfo.AltCaption);
Hope this information helps!
