getNoteID (NotesXspDocument - JavaScript™)

Gets the note ID of the current document.

Syntax

getNoteID() : string
Return value Description
string The ID which can be up to 8 characters.

Usage

The note ID identifies the document within one database. It is not the universal ID which uniquely identifies a document across replicas.

The note ID is not established for a new (unsaved) document and appears as something like NEW_nnn.

Examples

This button assigns the note ID of the document associated with the current context to a session variable.
sessionScope.noteid = document1.getNoteID()
A button on another page uses the session variable to determine the target document for an Open simple action.
return sessionScope.noteid
The button for the Open simple action is visible only if the note ID is set.
sessionScope.noteid != null
