Pass folder name via URL to SPO Rest API call

Question

I have one page listing different folder URLs. Clicking the link should trigger the code below on the second page using parameters passed from the URL from page one.

I am trying to pass Folder name parameter via URL to load the API call in custom ASPX page on SPO. The URL linking to this second page code below will have the folder details.

URL format from page one - <<<SPO_SITE>>>/SiteAssets/Image.aspx?Folder="<<<FOLDER_NAME>>>"

Thanks for any help please.

Hi @sp13test ,

Try to get the Folder querystring parameter in the url and pass into Rest EndPoint like this:

var relativeurl = "/sites/dev/Share Documents/" + GetParameterValues("Folder");  
var requestUri = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl +"/_api/web/getfolderbyserverrelativeurl('"+relativeurl+"')/Files?$top=2000&$select=ServerRelativeUrl";  
  
  
function GetParameterValues(param) {  
            var url = window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');  
            for (var i = 0; i < url.length; i++) {  
                var urlparam = url[i].split('=');  
                if (urlparam[0] == param) {  
                    return urlparam[1];  
                }  
            }  
        }  

Thanks
Best Regards
