ServiceNow display list of large tables where last record updated > 6 months ago

code snippet - modify filter parameters as needed (STARTSWITH query could also be changed to LIKE)

var sLogSource = 'fixScr:largeOldTables';
gs.print('script start', sLogSource);
 
var sizeCheck= 100;
var monthsAgoCheck=6;
var tableNameMatch='cmdb';
 

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_dictionary');
gr.addEncodedQuery('internal_type.label=Collection');
gr.addEncodedQuery('nameSTARTSWITH' + tableNameMatch);

gr.query();

gs.print('TOTAL TABLES TARGETTED: ' + gr.getRowCount());

while (gr.next()) {
    var tableName = gr.name.toString();
    try {
        var gr1 = new GlideAggregate(tableName);
        gr1.addAggregate('COUNT');
        gr1.query();
        if (gr1.next()) {
            var lastUpdated = getLatestRecord(tableName, sLogSource)+"";
            if (!gs.nil(lastUpdated)) {
                var tableCount = gr1.getAggregate('COUNT');
                if (tableCount > sizeCheck) {
                   
                    var luDate = new GlideDateTime(lastUpdated);
                    if (luDate < gs.monthsAgoStart(monthsAgoCheck)) {
                        gs.print('Table: ' + tableName + ' has: ' + tableCount + ' records, [table last updated: ' + lastUpdated + ']', sLogSource);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    } catch (err) {
        gs.logError("We've got an error for table: " + gr.name.toString() + "- " + err.toString(), sLogSource);

        //break;
        continue;
    }
}
gs.print('script end', sLogSource);

function getLatestRecord(tableName, logsource) {
    var dReturn = '';
    try {
        var gr = new GlideRecord(tableName);
        gr.orderByDesc('sys_updated_on');
        gr.setLimit(1);
        gr.query();
        if (gr.next()) {
            if (!gs.nil(gr.sys_updated_on)) {
                dReturn = gr.getValue("sys_updated_on");
                //gs.log(tableName+'::TABLE LAST UPDATED:' + dReturn,logsource);
            }
        }
    } catch (ex) {}
    return dReturn;

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 )){

Get URL Parameter - server side script (portal or classic UI)

Classic UI : var sURL_editparam = gs . action . getGlideURI (). getMap (). get ( ' sysparm_aparameter ' ); if ( sURL_editparam == 'true' ) { gs . addInfoMessage ( 'parameter passed ); } Portal : var sURL_editparam = $sp . getParameter ( " sysparm_aparameter " ); if ( sURL_editparam == 'true' ) { gs . addInfoMessage ( 'parameter passed ); }
