ServiceNow Service Catalog Advanced Reference Qualifier in SCOPED app -CHALLENGES (List Collector)

 ServiceNow Service Catalog Advanced Reference Qualifier in SCOPED app -CHALLENGES (List Collector)


in the list collector reference qualifier I am passing the value of a reference variable to the script include

I found it necessary to 
  • pass it in this format using toString()
  • use the fully qualified api name (including the api scope, in this case  x_cls_clear_skye_i
  • do not use ref_qual_elements in the variable attributes box
  • seems necessary to click the 'run filter' button on the list collector to pull back the results


    in order for it to work:

javascript:new x_cls_clear_skye_i.myScriptInclude().testFunction(current.variables.account.toString());


script include example function:

testFunction: function(sAccount) {
gs.warn('test::ClearSkyeTableServerSide.testFunction-sAcc='+sAccount);
//gs.warn('test::ClearSkyeTableServerSide.testFunction-');
return ('sys_id=d1e1c87e9769ad10df843a300153af45');
}


seems to work with both client callable and non client callable script includes, in this case I kept it server side

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 )){...
