Is it possible to add the Dependency View to a CI on the CSM/FSM Configurable Workspace

On the backend you have the possibility to see the Dependency View button

But on CSM/FSM Configurable Workspace it is not shown

Hi @lexveldkamp ,

OOTB for CI field in the CSM/FSM Configurable Workspace you cannot get Dependency view, it's limited with the backend view itself.

However, if you want you can create a custom field (which is not recommended), for the view as "Workspace" by following these steps :

OOB, there is a UI macro to open dependency views map. Macro Name : "task_show_ci_map"

To add this "Dependency Views" icon, please follow the below steps.

  • Open any Affected CI record.
  • Open dictionary of "Configuration Item". Below is the direct reference to the OOB dictionary entry.
    • /sys_dictionary.do?sys_id=cf88e1dc2c5300100c1dbc48b5c9f559
  • If the "Attributes" field is not on the form, add the same.
    • For adding "Attributes", open Configure >> Form Layout.
    • Select the "Attributes" field from slushbucket and save the form.
  • Append "ref_contributions=task_show_ci_map" ( without quotes ) to existing attributes and save.
  • Now you should see the dependency view next to Affected CIs. Here is the screenshot of this macro.

 

 

- This is the "Affected CIs" with "Dependency Views" after adding the macro.

Mark my answer correct & Helpful, if Applicable.
