 set home page search to return 'my approvals' based on approval.task short description or number




search source script:

search page template:

<div> <a href="?id=approval&table={{item.table}}&sys_id={{item.sys_id}}" class="h4 text-primary m-b-sm block">Approval for: {{item.number}} <span ng-bind-html="highlight(item.primary, data.q)"></span> </a> <span class="text-muted"> {{item.short_description}} </span> <span class="m-l-xs m-r-xs"> &middot; </span> <span class="text-muted"> {{item.sys_created_on}} </span> </div>

is scripted source = ticked

data fetch script:


(function(query) { var results = []; /* Calculate your results here. */ var grApprovals=new GlideRecord('sysapproval_approver'); grApprovals.addQuery('state', 'requested'); grApprovals.addQuery('approver', gs.getUserID()); var sQuery="sysapproval.short_descriptionLIKE" + query + "^ORsysapproval.numberLIKE" + query; grApprovals.addQuery(sQuery); grApprovals.query(); while (grApprovals.next()){ var myapproval = {}; myapproval.table='sysapproval_approver'; myapproval.sys_id=grApprovals.getValue("sys_id"); myapproval.number=grApprovals.sysapproval.number+""; myapproval.short_description=grApprovals.sysapproval.short_description+""; myapproval.sys_created_on=grApprovals.getValue('sys_created_on'); results.push(myapproval); } return results; })(query);

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 ; } } }
