Get ClientContext using URL

Question

In Sharepoint, when we load the sp.js file after that when we use given code then it gives the current site context. But how can i get the site context using url.

 var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();

Solution 1

get_current() would always return current context only. If you want to get context of particular site then you would need to pass url in ClientContext() method.

var context = new SP.ClientContext(URL);

In case you want to get root site context then you can directly use get_root() method.

Solution 2

Try this

  var context = new SP.ClientContext(URL);
