Shortcut slashcommand to create a link to the current page

[krysbzh]

Hello everyone,
I often need to send my colleagues the number of a Story or RITM in a MS Teams conversation. To make their lives easier, I convert the text into an HTTP link.
Until now, I'd copy and paste the number and add the hyperlink before sending my message. A lot of manipulation and time wasted.

So I came up with the idea of ​​creating a slash command that prepares the link and stores it in the clipboard. I called it "/lk" and here's the code I added.
javascript: (async function () { try { var label = null; if (window.g_form) { label = g_form.getValue('number'); if(g_form.getValue('short_description')) label+=" | "+g_form.getValue('short_description');} if (!label) { label = document.title; } var url = window.location.href; if (!label) { alert('Impossible to get a label'); return; } var html = '<a href=\"' + url + '\">' + label + '</a>'; var text = label + ' - ' + url; await navigator.clipboard.write([new ClipboardItem({ 'text/html': new Blob([html], { type: 'text/html' }), 'text/plain': new Blob([text], { type: 'text/plain' }) })]); snuSlashCommandInfoText("Link to current page copied in clipboard !"); return; } catch (e) { alert('Erreur : ' + e); } })();

If the number field exists, it displays the number label; otherwise, it uses the page title. This doesn't work as well. I'll let you test it out, and if you have any comments or ideas for improvement, I'd be happy to share them.

Regards
Chris

A /copylink slash command. What a great idea!

Cool, thanks for sharing! Instead of alert, you could consider using snuSlashCommandInfoText(msg) that may be a bit better experience.
This is for sharing? Im considering (preparing for) a slashcommand marketplace, this would be a good fit

Thanks for the suggestion @arnoudkooi . I added it.
Is it possible to close the slashcommand modal after few seconds ?

I just came here to see if anything like this had been attempted. Thanks for sharing.

The only thing i would like to see added (which may not be possible in a slash command) is to include the value of the display field for the record. So for an incident, for example, you would get something like "INC001234 - User cannot log into Windows" with the link.

Hi guy, good idea. I adapted the code to concatenate with the short description. you can look at the main post.

This is quite a useful addition to my list of custom ones!

Is it possible to have the 'main URL' instead of the full URL encoded?

eg. If I have navigated to a ticket manually, the URL includes all the parameters:
https://abc.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/change_request.do%3Fsys_id%3Df32221533374b2908605a9ed5c7b8c%26sysparm_record_target%3Dchange_request%26sysparm_record_row%3D2%26sysparm_record_rows%3D40%26sysparm_record_list%3Dactive%253Dtrue%255Eassigned_to%253D35d49ed1874b70581010a64cbb351e%255Eon_hold%2521%253DTrue%255EORDERBYDESCsys_updated_on

It would be nice if this were reduced to the main URL only:
https://abc.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=change_request.do?sys_id=f32221533374b2908605a9ed5c7b8c

Thanks!!
