ServiceNow Get Variable Name in Business Rule (Record Producer or Service Request)

 ServiceNow Get Variable Name in Business Rule (Record Producer or Service Request)



current.variables.<variable_name> 




for a record producer where you don't know the variable names this type of approach could work:


/*var producerVars_allVars = new GlideRecord('question_answer');
producerVars_allVars.addQuery('table_sys_id', current.sys_id);
producerVars_allVars.addQuery('question.type', '!=', 11);
producerVars_allVars.addQuery('question.type', '!=', 19);
producerVars_allVars.addQuery('question.type', '!=', 20);
producerVars_allVars.query();
while (producerVars_allVars.next()) {
var varName = producerVars_allVars.question.name.toString();
if (!gs.nil(varName)) {
if (varName == 'business_role_iga') {
sDescr += '\n';
sDescr += 'varName';
sDescr += ': '
sDescr += producerVars_allVars.value;
}

}
//allVars.push(producerVars.question.name.toString());
}*/

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 ; } } }
