capturing table updates in an update set

Dameli Utembaye · ‎09-13-2023

Hey I read through this https://www.servicenow.com/community/developer-forum/capturing-already-present-custom-tables-in-an-u... -- it did not help

I need to capture table updates in an update set so I can merge it to prod and have an updated table in prod

Easiest method would be to use the "Add to Update Set Utility" from SerivceNow Share: https://developer.servicenow.com/connect.do#!/share/contents/9824957_add_to_update_set_utility?v=7.7...

Hi, what exactly does 'it did not help' mean?

Did you follow the process used when developing with update sets?
IE did you create an update set for the correct scope, set as the current update set, make your changes, close out the update set and deploy it to your target instance?

Get started with update sets (servicenow.com)

if you did not capture your updates in an update set then they will have been applied to the 'Default' update set for the scope involved and you will need to manually move these updates to a custom update set.

Create a new update set in the correct scope.
Navigate to Local Update sets via menu
Open the Default update set for the scope involved
Open the 'Customer Updates' tab in a new browser window
If the 'Update Set' reference field is not visible in the list view add it to your list.
Find the 'Updates' that you need to move to your new update set
Highlight the Update Set field, then double click and select your new Update set as the correct reference.
When you are sure you have captured all the required update records, close out your new update set using normal process and deploy to your target instance.
