UI Action Test Load 2 records

instead of the ootb test load records which requires certain privileged roles to access,
create a new one which can be restricted to the itil role
makes a httprequest call to the out of the box java processor (which itself cannot be edited)

UI Action:
"Test Load 2 Records (ServiceDesk)"

table:
data source (sys_data_source)

condition:
current.import_set_table_name=='u_<whatever table name>' && gs.hasRole('<whatever role>service_desk');


code:
--------
--------

current.update();

try{
//--run the processor this way, so that service desk do not need import_transformer role to do this
var url=gs.getProperty('glide.servlet.uri')+'sys_import.do';
var request=new GlideHTTPRequest(url);
request.setBasicAuth(gs.getProperty('sd.uid'), gs.getProperty('sd.pwd'));
request.addHeader('Accept', 'application/json');
request.addParameter('import_source', 'data_source');
request.addParameter('sysparm_data_source', current.sys_id);
request.addParameter('sysparm_tablename', current.import_set_table_name);
request.addParameter('sysparm_recreate_table', 'false');
request.addParameter('create_new_module', 'ON');
request.addParameter('sysparm_extends', 'sys_import_set_row');
request.addParameter('selected_application', 'import_sets');
request.addParameter('sysparm_default_state', 'test');
request.addParameter('max_rows', '2');
var response=request.get();
var httpStatus=response.getStatusCode();
gs.log('TESTRESP:' + httpStatus, ':processor_resp');
if (httpStatus!=200 && httpStatus!=201){
throw ('httpStatus error: ' + httpStatus);
}


}catch (ex){
gs.addErrorMessage('error--check with ServiceNow team');
gs.log(ex.toString(), 'test-processorErr');
}

var info = "Test loading 2 rows - ";

//info += "<a style='text-decoration:underline;color:blue' href=sys_data_source.do?sys_id=" + current.sys_id + ">Return to data source</a><img width='3' src='images/s.gif'/>";
gs.sleep(5000);
var grTUD=new GlideRecord('u_user_data');
var testQuery='sys_created_on>javascript:gs.beginningOfLastMinute()^sys_import_state=test';

ServiceNow timeout settings for virtual agent chat

  After connecting to live agent User is connected to live agent and not responding to live agent chat or distracted. The below properties controls the timeout settings, the OOB settings for reminder is [180 sec] and for cancelling the chat is [360 sec]. The job is default configured to 2 min so I believe no tweaking is required here.  Property -   com.glide.cs.idle_chat_reminder_timeout                  com.glide.cs.idle_chat_cancel_timeout Scheduled job   - Idle Chat Timer Task   https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_article&sys_id=1453b03bdbaad0109e691ea668961929   (ServiceNow ) 

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 )){...
