  function getOrg() {

    function callDialog() {
    
    var url="/" + getOrg() + "/cs/dialog/rundialog.aspx?DialogId=%7bB7D825D7-7EF6-4713-AC11-284546FEB260%7d&EntityName=systemuser&ObjectId=" + getUser();

    }

The JavaScript Webresource has three function

• getOrganisation() – to get context organisation
• getUser()-to get the logged in user
• callDialog()- will call the dialog. you can change the DialogId to call your own dialog.

This example is using a dialog attached to the user entity, so we don’t need to create any record to run the dialog. The code picks up the logged in user and run the process.
