ServiceNow retrieve all variables - record producer or RITM - from the generated ticket



below example, i did this in a custom portal page widget. below is the server code function

function getVariableValues(table, ticketNumber, optVariableName, optVariableName_db){
  //--https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/london-application-development/page/script/server-scripting/concept/c_ScriptableServiceCatalogVariables.html
var gr= new GlideRecord(table);
  gr.addQuery('number', ticketNumber);
  gr.query();
  var vars=[];

if (gr.next()) {
for (var prop in gr.variables) {
       if (gr.variables.hasOwnProperty(prop) ){
       var variable =  gr.variables[prop].getDisplayValue();
       var v = gr.variables[prop];
          if(!gs.nil(v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel()) &&  !gs.nil(gr.variables[prop].getDisplayValue())) {
  var label = v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel();
  var variableName=v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getName();
  if (optVariableName!='' || optVariableName_db!=''){
// gs.addInfoMessage(optVariableName + '; ' + label);
if (optVariableName.toLowerCase()==label.toLowerCase() && !gs.nil(variable) && variable!='undefined'){
//gs.addInfoMessage(label);
vars.push( label.toUpperCase() + ' [' + variableName + '] : ' + variable );
break;
}
if (optVariableName_db.toLowerCase()==variableName.toLowerCase() && !gs.nil(variable) && variable!='undefined'){
//gs.addInfoMessage(label);
vars.push( label.toUpperCase() + ' [' + variableName + '] : ' + variable );
break;
}
}else{
if (!gs.nil(variable) && variable!='undefined'){
                  vars.push( label.toUpperCase()+ ' [' + variableName + '] : ' + variable );
}
}
           }
       }
    }
 }

ServiceNow check for null or nil or empty (or not)

Haven't tested these all recently within global/local scopes, so feel free to have a play! option 1 use an encoded query embedded in the GlideRecord , e.g.  var grProf = new GlideRecord ( 'x_cls_clear_skye_i_profile' ); grProf . addQuery ( 'status=1^ owner=NULL ' ); grProf . query (); even better use the glideRecord  addNotNullQuery or addNullQuery option 2 JSUtil.nil / notNil (this might be the most powerful. See this link ) example: if ( current . operation () == 'insert' && JSUtil . notNil ( current . parent ) && ! current . work_effort . nil ())  option 3 there might be times when you need to get inside the GlideRecord and perform the check there, for example if the code goes down 2 optional routes depending on null / not null can use gs.nil : var grAppr = new GlideRecord ( 'sysapproval_approver' ); var grUser = new GlideRecord ( 'sys_user' ); if ( grUser . get ( 'sys_id' , current . approver )){...

Code a pause/wait - gs.sleep or gs.wait alternative, pause script for specified seconds (timer)

Code a pause/wait - gs.sleep / gs.wait alternative, pause script for specified seconds (timer)  e.g. 10 seconds: do_sleep ( 10000 ); function do_sleep ( milliseconds ) { var start = new Date (). getTime (); for ( var i = 0 ; i < 1e7 ; i ++) { if (( new Date (). getTime () - start ) > milliseconds ){ gs . print ( 'waking up!' ); break ; } } }
