Having a simple form with two submit buttons, how can I get the formaction attribute in a submit event?

HTML code:

<form id="FORM" action="/original">
  <input type="text">
</form>

<button form="FORM">original</button>
<button form="FORM" formaction="/formaction">formaction</button>

When submitting using formaction button action of the form is still original in the event.

You can get the overridden form action by grabbing the element which currently has focus (after the submit event was sent) using document.activeElement

You can see if a formaction override is attached to the button that sent the submit event, otherwise if there is none, then use the original action

document.getElementById("FORM").addEventListener("submit", handleForm);

function handleForm(e) {
  e.preventDefault(); // for this example only

  let formAction = e.target.getAttribute("action");
  let activeElementAction = document.activeElement.getAttribute("formaction");
  let action = activeElementAction || formAction;
  console.log(action);
}

<form id="FORM" action="/original">
  <input type="text">
</form>

<button form="FORM">original</button>
<button form="FORM" formaction="/formaction">formaction</button>

You can use submitter property of SubmitEvent and check that formaction attribut is filled https://developer.mozilla/en-US/docs/Web/API/SubmitEvent

This property is referenced in originalEvent property of JQuery submit event

var submitter = $(event.originalEvent.submitter)

if (submitter.attr('formaction')) {
    ...     
} else {
    ...
}
