[psphanindrakuma]

 Installation procedure.

1. Install VS code extension – [ sn-scriptsync]. 

 

2. Create a new folder with the name “sn-scriptsync" under Documents directory.

      

3. Install “ServiceNow Utils” – browser extension in Chrome or Firefox browser.

 

4. Enable ServiceNow Utils in the browser.

 

5. Click on Open ScriptSync Helper Tab. It will create a web socket connection between your instance and the VS code.

     

6. Click on the new button provided by browser extension which opens code in vscode. After saving code in VS code editor, WebSocket connection updates the code in an instance. And it will be captured in the update set.

Hi All,

Can you try the official ServiceNow Vs Code Extension.

This video helped me to set up and use that extension: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCQ-PtQYnGU

@kundanthaku, when trying the official one, I had trouble to set it up. I didn't know where to find the client ID and client secret for our OIDC authentication. This one is pretty simple to use, doesn't require you to set up credentials at all.

@kundanthaku  You can go with basic auth with user name (email id) and the password for your profile

Hi @MichelSamia and @raja_4m ,

Please check this article and ServiceNow Documentation for Oauth:

I am using 1.7.0 version with OAUTH+MFA and it works fine for all but Script Includes.

I have scoped app and use ESLINT on VSCODE but it is annoying that file sync fails calling SN for script includes.

Does anyone know how to trace extension; to figure out why just for script include it is not calling metadata update, even if diff works perfectly fine?

this is not really verbose...

Should I ask Support or it is rather Community business?
