Dear All,
I have this Script Include (Client callable):
var SimpleExampleScriptInclude = Class.create();
SimpleExampleScriptInclude.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
getMessage: function () {
return 'Hello from the Script Include!'; // Simple response
}
});
And I have this Catalog Client Script (UI Type is: 'All'):
function onLoad() {
// Create a GlideAjax object and specify the Script Include
var myGlideAjax = new GlideAjax('SimpleExampleScriptInclude');
// Add the name of the method to call in the Script Include
myGlideAjax.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getMessage');
// Execute the GlideAjax call
myGlideAjax.getXMLAnswer(function(response) {
if (response) {
// Set the field value with the returned response
g_form.setValue('test_string_field', response);
} else {
// Handle cases where no response is returned
g_form.setValue('test_string_field', 'No message returned');
}
});
}
It works on the Platform, because the value of the 'test_string_field' goes to 'Hello from the Script Include!' (the message from the Script Include).
However it does NOT work on the Portal, because the value of the 'test_string_field' goes to '
Regards
Solved! Go to Solution.

It's unable to call that script include from portal.
script include and client script both are in same scope or different ones?
Try with fresh client script and script include
If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

I still suspect this error message is probably still because of function name cached in browser.
Change the function name to something else and try in different browser or incognito mode.
Hopefully that should work.

With this:
var alertMessage = "Value: " + response + " Type: " + typeof(response);
alert(alertMessage);
Alert on Platform:
"Value: Hello from the Script Include! Type: string"
Alert on Portal:
"Value: null Type: object"
Can anyone help, please?

Can you check the UI type for the Catalog client script that you have created? It should be All.
