can we fetch value using g_form.getValue("field") from read-only fields in the form

Hello Sonia,

I have tried to replicate it by making the field read-only using client script and UI policy, and it works.

I created 2 fields on the incident table. Field 1 & Field 2.

You can run the below script in client script or UI policy both:

g_form.setReadOnly("u_field_1",true);
var f1 = g_form.getValue("u_field_1");
g_form.setValue("u_field_2",f1);

@sonia55 yes you can fetch the value of read-only field value. Just wanted to check are you looking for any specific senario. 

Please mark the suggestion as helpful, if you find it useful to you or others who want to refer to similar content.

Hi @sonia55 ,

Yes, provided that field is visible/(hidden by ui policy should also be fine) and present on the form.

If the field is not on the form then it is not available for you to access from g_form.
