Hi Team,

I am developing workflows in NWC and we have many actions related creating list item, update item and query list etc. Each time Site URL is hardcoded under SharePoint Site URL. Is there a way we can save the URL in a variable and refer that variable wherever is needed.

Or is there a way to get site URL from context. Please suggest the best practice.

Thanks!

Hi @Krishna521 



 



Here's my idea



 



1. Save the URL in a SharePoint List



[Title] | [Type] | URL



App1 | Dev | www0



App1 | Prod | www1 



 



2. Query the List - Where Title=App1, Type=Prod



 



3. Save the result to a variable



varURL = "www1"



 



Hope that helps


Thanks for the response. Even to query the sharepoint list, we need provide site url. Is that correct?

Consider this SharePoint List as the single source of truth in your team or organization.



 



If you wish, you could set up another resource to replace the SharePoint list as the single source of truth e.g. a Web Service, a SQL Database, an Excel file, a Word document, a XML file or a plain Text file. Then store the list of URLs into that resource. 



 



1. Save the URLs in your desired resource



2. Query the resource - Where Title=App1, Type=Prod



3. Save the result to a variable



 


Hi @Krishna521, Upon further research and exploring...



You can get the SPO Site URL. Refer to the image below
