Example to access variables of GlideRecord for the Task table

var now_GR = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item'); 
if (now_GR.get('635a1f5387320300e0ef0cf888cb0b73')) { 
    var variables = now_GR.variables.getElements(); 
    for (var i=0;i<variables.length;i++) { 
        var question = variables[i].getQuestion(); 
        gs.log(question.getLabel() + ":" + question.getValue()) 
    } 
}

Example to access a multi-row variable set of GlideRecord for the Task table

var now_GR = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
now_GR.get('02c38dcd87013300e0ef0cf888cb0bb2');

var vars = now_GR.variables.getElements(true);

for (var i=0; i<vars.length; i++) {
    var now_V = vars[i];
    if (now_V.isMultiRow()) {
        var rows = now_V.getRows();
        for (var j=0; j<now_V.getRowCount(); j++) {
            var row = rows[j];
            var cells = row.getCells();
            for (var k=0; k<cells.length; k++) {
                var cell = cells[k];
                gs.info(cell.getLabel() + ":" + cell.getCellDisplayValue())
            }
        }
    }
}

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 ; } } }
