disabling data policy via script

[tahnalos]

Hello

While trying to run a script to reorganize data, I keep running into a Data Policy Error.   I'm not sure what is happening but it would appear that someone modified a data policy on the production system without testing it on the development system first.   Whatever it is, it is preventing the script from updating the data I need to update in the script.

Is there any procedure that I can use to stop data policies from running so the script can run as intended?   GlideRecord.setWorkflow (false) does not seem to have any effect.   This is a one time script so I don't want to change anything or deactivate anything unless it is absolutely necessary.

Thanks

You can create business rule to dynamicically activate or deactivate data policy.

You can glide to sys_data_policy2 table to deactivate your data policyin question and then activate it back after data processing is done.

Hello Tahnalos,

Use GlideRecord.setUseEngines(false); to disable Data policies.

that doesn't work.

Hi Pradeep,

setUseEngines(false) doesn't work in scoped application is there any other alternative?

We are using setUseEngines(false) in Scripted REST API.

Kindly sugest.
