Skip to main content

SCRIPT INCLUDES: return multi values using multi functions in the same si call session

EXAMPLE REQUIREMENT:
return all RITM variables in the main function, then return sys_ids in 2 separate functions

SCRIPT INCLUDE CODE:

var lib_request = Class.create();
lib_request.prototype = {
    initialize: function() {
        this.room = '';
        this.build = '';
    },

    retrieve_variables: function(RITMsysid) {
        /*call the function this way:
var si=new cu_request().retrieve_variables('f9405a06db859cd0be49fe03f39619ee');
gs.print(si);
*/
        var arrReturn = [];
        try {
            var grRITM = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
            if (grRITM.get('sys_id', RITMsysid)) {
                var RITMvariables = grRITM.variables.getElements();
                for (var ix = 0; ix < RITMvariables.length; ix++) {
                    var question = RITMvariables[ix].getQuestion();
                    //gs.log(question.getLabel() + ":" + question.getValue());
                    var varValue = question.getDisplayValue();
                    var varLabel = question.getLabel();
                    if (varLabel == 'Building' || varLabel == 'Room') {
                        varValue = question.getValue();
                    }
                    arrReturn[ix] = (varLabel + ":" + varValue);
                }
            }
        } catch (ex) {

        }
        return arrReturn;
    },

    retrieve_variables_ootb: function(RITMsysid) {
        // Get the RITM variable data
        var build = "";
        var room = "";

        var keys = [];
        var set = new GlideappVariablePoolQuestionSet();
        set.setRequestID(RITMsysid);
        set.load();
        var vs = set.getFlatQuestions();
        var vardata = "";

        for (var i = 0; i < vs.size(); i++) {
            if (vs.get(i).getLabel() != '') {

                vardata = vardata + ('     ' + vs.get(i).getLabel() + " : " + vs.get(i).getDisplayValue() + "\n");

                if (vs.get(i).getLabel() == 'Building') {
                    build = vs.get(i).getValue();
                }
                if (vs.get(i).getLabel() == 'Room') {
                    room = vs.get(i).getValue();
                }

            }
        }
        this.room = room;
        this.build = build;
        return vardata;
    },

    variables_room: function() {
        return this.room;
    },
    variables_building: function() {
        return this.build;
    },

    type: 'lib_request'
};

CALL THE SCRIPT INCLUDE:

var si= new cu_request();
var vars=si.retrieve_variables_ootb('5430b054dbd590d083986b4bd396zzzz');
gs.print(vars);
var sroom=si.variables_room();
var sbuilding=si.variables_building();
gs.print('ROOM:' + sroom);
gs.print('BUILDING:'+sbuilding);

OUTPUT:

GlideRecord setValue

setValue(String name, Object value) Sets the specified field to the specified value. Normally a script would do a direct assignment, for example,  gr.category = value . However, if in a script the element name is a variable, then  gr.setValue(elementName, value)  can be used. When setting a value, ensure the data type of the field matches the data type of the value you enter. This method cannot be used on journal fields. If the value parameter is null, the record is not updated, and an error is not thrown https://developer.servicenow.com/app.do#!/api_doc?v=madrid&id=r_GlideRecord-setValue_String_Object
