API related query in sc_task table

[Laxmi4]

Hi,

I am using the below api:

https://your-instance-url/api/now/table/sc_task?sysparm_query=short_description=Testing^state=1^assi...

I want to use the above api as GET. I don't want to use the Id of assigned group and request_item, I want their name in to the api so that I can use them rest anywhere.

Problem:

I had created 2 tasks.

task1 with Short discription : Testing, state : 1, assignment_group : IT Securities , request_item : Access, approval : Approved

task2 with  Short discription : Testing, state : 1,  approval : Approved

When I am executing the api the response I am receiving is not as expected. When I use this api I should receive the response of task1, but I am getting tas1 as well as  task2 in the response.

How can I resolve this issue.

Hi,

Thanks for your support.

The issue is been resolved. One can follow as below to get the solution:

instead of using this api url : https://your-instance-url/api/now/table/sc_task?sysparm_query=short_description=Testing^state=1^assi...

we can use :https://your-instance-url/api/now/table/sc_task?sysparm_query=short_description=Testing^state=1^assi... 

to directly use the group_name and also filelds with their name instead of their id.

Thank you.

Regards,

Laxmi
