# LoadDefaultRecord.js

## How To Use It

In your the **Code Inside Header** section of your page settings, put the following code:

```
<script src="https://scissors.appspan.net/LoadDefaultRecord/LoadDefaultRecord.js">
```

## How to Customize It

Add the following before the `<script src=>` tag:

```
<script>
const LoadDefaultRecord = {
    defaultRecordId: "abc123"    // Id of the record to display when no record Id is on the URL
};
</script>
```

## What It Does

When the page loads, this script looks to see if there is a record Id specified on the URL, which could either be in the `?recordId=` format or in the `/r/rec` format. If there is no record Id in either of these formats, then it changes the URL to include the value of `defaultRecordId` and reloads the page by calling `history.replaceState()` so that there is not an extra entry in the history.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://scissors-docs.appspan.net/loaddefaultrecord.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
