ServiceNow: using Name-Pair Fields

 ServiceNow: using Name-Pair Fields

you can use these for complete flexibility for populating fields as per key-value principle, similar to a JSON object

 


you populate the field using JSON.stringify:

 

setGlidePathNamePair();

 

function setGlidePathNamePair(){

    var cmdbSYSID='1d68955ffb1d1a102478f4ff4eefxxxx';

    var gp_payload = {

            "TenantID": "xxxxxxx-4718-4590-a921-f17e37f1799a",

            "APPREQUEST_ApplicationName": "example",

            "APPREQUEST_FederationType": "SAML",

            "CLAIMSREQUEST_Attributes_email": "email1",

            "CLAIMSREQUEST_Attributes_givenname": "givenName1",

            "CLAIMSREQUEST_Attributes_surname": "surname1",

            "CLAIMSREQUEST_Attributes_upn": "upn1",

            "SIGNINGCERTREQUEST_LifeSpanDays": "160"

        };

 

        var sValToStor=JSON.stringify(gp_payload);

 

        var grAPM=new GlideRecord('cmdb_ci_business_app');

        if (grAPM.get('sys_id', cmdbSYSID)){

            grAPM.u_glidepath_attributes=sValToStor;

            var sUpdate=grAPM.update();

            gs.print(sUpdate + ' updated');

        }

}


this is how the field looks on the form:

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 ; } } }
