client script

We need to list all the mandatory fields in the record using a client script (code)

Hi @AK001025799 ,
1.Create a onLoad client script.

Table - Incident

UI type - All

Type - onLoad

Active - checked

Global - Checked else specify viewName

2.Add the following script with a delay

function onLoad() {
    // Delay execution by 500ms to allow Dictionary Overrides to fully load in the browser
    setTimeout(function() {
        
        var fields = g_form.getEditableFields();
        var mandatoryFieldsList = [];

        for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
            var fieldName = fields[i];
            
           
            if (g_form.isMandatory(fieldName)) {
               
                var fieldLabel = g_form.getLabelOf(fieldName);
                mandatoryFieldsList.push(fieldLabel);
            }
        }

        // If mandatory fields are found, display them 
        if (mandatoryFieldsList.length > 0) {
            g_form.addInfoMessage("The following fields are mandatory:\n\n" + mandatoryFieldsList.join(","));
        }
    }, 500); // 500 milliseconds delay
}

3.Save the record.

4.you will get a Info message on form load.

pls remove the console.log line n try

function onLoad() {

    var mandatoryFields = [];

    var elements = g_form.elements;

    for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {

        var fieldName = elements[i].fieldName || elements[i].name;

        if (fieldName && g_form.isMandatory(fieldName)) {
            mandatoryFields.push(fieldName);
        }
    }

  
    alert("Mandatory Fields:\n" + mandatoryFields.join("\n"));
}

Can you please try using this:

function onLoad() {
var mandatoryFields = [];

var allFields = g_form.getFieldNames();

for (var i = 0; i < allFields.length; i++) {
var fieldName = allFields[i];

if (g_form.isMandatory(fieldName)) {
mandatoryFields.push(g_form.getLabelOf(fieldName));
}
}

g_form.addInfoMessage("Mandatory Fields: " + mandatoryFields.join(", "));
}

May be because if getEditableFields() is not supported in your instance it will not work.

HI @AK001025799 ,

Can you please share more info about your use case.

Where you want to display all mandatory fields?
When you want to display onLoad or onSubmit?

AK001025799 · ‎07-14-2026

On loading the Incident form, I want to display an alert for validation.
