Hello. I am creating a UI action and UI page to allow users to make updates to records. Upon entering the requested information, the UI page client script captures the information entered, sends it to script include that updates the record. I am attempting to capture the sys_id of the record that is calling the UI action/ui page, etc to pass it to the script include so I can do a glidequery on the table and update the comments on that specific record. Here are the lines of code I am using to achieve this:
This is the line in the UI Action to pass the sys_id to the UI page:
gm.setPreference('current', g_form.getUniqueValue());
I am declaring two variables in the HTML section of the UI page to obtain the sys_id. The second entry was the result of troubleshooting and was not the original code. Also, it have it wrapped in a <g:evaluate>.
<j:set var= "jvar_current" value= "${current}"/>
var recordSysId = RP.getWindowProperties().currentRec;
I have the "jvar_current" declared in hidden variable in hopes of being able to access it in the client script.
<input type="hidden" name="currentRec" value="${jvar_current}" id="currentRec" />
In the client script, I have the scripts below. The first to bring the sys_id into the client script and the second line is a part of the GlideAjax to send the sys_id to the script include.
In this configuration, the script include returns "unable to find a record to update". Adding a gs.info line returns and object Nodelist. In the past, this was received while working with many sys_id's and was solved by adding a .split(','); in the script include. That did not work here. I also tried adding .val();, .value;, and [0].value;, to the end of the line but the script include either returned and empty log entry or object Nodelist. I also tried document.getElementbyId, but the UI page did not close and refresh the page. There were no long entries when attempting this method.
var iscpRecord = document.getElementsByName('currentRec');
//I also tried:
var iscpRecord = gel('currenRec');
//Line in the GLideAjax call.
ga.addParam('sysparm_record', iscpRecord);
//Call the variable in the script include
const record = this.getParameter('sysparm_record').split(',');
//Use the variable to look up the record and update the comments:
new global.GlideQuery('x_snc_authorizatio_table_name')
.where('sys_id', 'IN', record)
.update({
comments: allEnteredData
});
The .where clause was originally:
.where('sys_id', record)
Again, I have been trying any and all ideas to get this to work, but I have been unsuccessful.
Can anyone provide assistance with properly passing the sys_id?
As always, thanks in advance.
