Description:

This utility adds a copy icon after the field. If the user clicks this icon, the value of the field is copied to the clipboard. This means literally the value, so for example in case of reference fields, the sys id is copied to the clipboard.

 

Usage: 
Install the update set mentioned in this share. Add the attribute ref_contributions=CopyFieldContent in the field where you want a copy icon.

Benefit:
When users click on the copy icon, the system will instantly copy the value of the respective field to the clipboard. This feature is designed to save time and eliminate the need for manual copying and pasting.

Hi @saicharan3 
For incident table OOTB there is a "Dictionary Entry Override", where the attribute is overridden, you can add this attribute in Dictionary Entry Override record of assignment group for incident table.

Record: https://your_instance.service-now.com/sys_dictionary_override.do?sys_id=9bf97551c3a32200b6dcdfdc64d3...

It is working in my instance.

This works great outside of a Workspace — thank you! Does anyone know how to get it working within a Workspace as well?
