window.history.back()
it will lead browser to previous page.
window.history.go(-1)
window.history.go(-1) also redirect browser to previous page . also window.history.go(-2) will redirect backward 2 pages
you cant store the complete previous URL because there is no function for that
you can use
document.referrer;
which will give you the domain name only of the previous url if you are using a desktop browser, and maybe it gives the full URL if you using the mobile browser
but this work only if it referred, i mean it should be coming by a href click, if you use the back button of the browser or directly type URL at browser then document. referrer is an empty string .
so i think it not useful for your case.

window.history.back() will redirect to the previous URL so you cant print it window.history.go(-1) will redirect to the previous URL so you cant print it
document.referrer will give you the site page where you come at this page
console.log(document.referrer)
will print the previous url . but it prints empty if no previous url.
