Can I use GlideRecord in a Service Portal client script

[stryker129]

This is a part of this question:

So I have a custom form in a widget (Service Portal page).

By submitting I'd like to store all the data to my table.

Firebug says that gr.insert() is not defined:

$('#submit').click(function(){
               var gr1 = new GlideRecord('x_11234_notes_customers');
               gr1.initialize();
               gr1.name = 'first to do item';     
               gr1.list_of_services = 'learn about GlideRecord';     
               gr1.insert();
       });

Where am I wrong here?

Glad it worked. Also notice that the if (input) check makes sure the code doesn't run when the widget loads and creates a blank record.

for sure. understood. thanks.

Brad, quick question here:

It was an empty form for creating a new customer.

Now I need to open this form for existing customer by clicking "edit" button from another SP page (from another widget).

How can I open this page from another one? In other words, I need to pass "customer" object from another widget to the current widget.

Thanks.

You would link to it and pass a url parameter, then your client and server side code would grab the sysid from the url parameter and populate the data object onload in that way.
