Get sys_id of reference field?

[JDX7913]

How do you get the sys_id of a reference field via server script? 

I tried the following, but I am getting the displayed name instead of the sys_id. 

'"table".getValue('name')'.

You can use current.reference_feild_name

Hi,

Try .getUniqueValue();

Thanks,

If Assignment Group is a reference field, I would just do current.assignment_group. I would name add name (current.assignment_group.name), which will give me the display value.

var gr = new GlideRecord("table_name");

gr.query();

while(gr.next())
gr.ref_field_name.getRefRecord().getUniqueValue()
