I'm testing a RESP API call using the API explorer on a developer instance. I am able to use the API explorer to create a new Incident and the response body in the explorer do not match what appears in the incident.
https://<my-instance>.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/%24restapi.do
Specifically my JSON is:
{"short_description":"new incident 1203pm","correlation_id":"123","comments":"here's a comment","priority":"1","description":"description added - too","comments_and_work_notes":"comments and worknotes"}
The response body in the API explorer show includes:
"correlation_id": "Cust1-18",
However, when I open up the incident, the correlation ID is some other number, Each time I submit, that "other number" simply increments, while the API explorer response body continues to show the right information
Has anyone seen this before or know what's happening? Is this a dev instance only problem?
