Run a test load data from script calling processor

this is a modified version of the 'test load 20 records' ui action create this as a copy in the condition, add a condition to restrict it to the data source in question in this example a file import instead of having to redirect to the sys_import.do java processor, this can be done in script as follows: (instance calls itself via httprequest to access the processor, this can enable users without permissions but who can see the UI action to perform a test load on the data source with the file attached) ------------- current.update();  //--below is OOTB code, commented out but principles reused /*var redirectStr = "sys_import.do?"; // the URI redirectStr += "import_source=data_source"; // this is a Data Source import redirectStr += "&sysparm_data_source=" + current.sys_id; // the sys_id of this redirectStr += "&sysparm_tablename=" + current.import_set_table_name; // always create the same test redirectStr += &
