Hello Community,
Does anyone knows how to I convert seconds into GlideDuration object? I need the seconds to write to GlideDuration field type in a table.
The seconds are passed in by DurationCalculator object as below:
var dc = new DurationCalculator(); var duration = dc.calcScheduleDuration("2012-04-10 08:00:00","2012-04-14 06:00:00"));
I need the duration to be stored in GlideDuration object but can't seems to find the right way to do so.
Can anyone advise on this?
Thank you.

var dc = new DurationCalculator();
var durationInSeconds = dc.calcScheduleDuration("2012-04-10 08:00:00","2012-04-14 06:00:00"); //Returns seconds
var durationInMs = durationInSeconds * 1000
var gDuration = new GlideDuration(durationInMs ); //Takes MS as paramater
current.setValue('your_duration_field', gDuration.getValue() ); //Set a duration field
