Getting sys_id of current update set from within a business rule

[Steen RP]

Hi.

In a business rule, I need to find out which update set is my current update set.

Is there any way to achieve this; doe ServiceNow store this information in a session property?

Any suggestion will be appriciated. 

Thanks 

Regards

It's stored in a User Preference called 'sys_update_set'

instanceNameservice-now.com/sys_user_preference_list.do?sysparm_query=nameLIKEsys_update_set&sysparm_view=

Example script usage:

var currentUpdateSet = gs.getUser().getPreference('sys_update_set');

Hi Steen,

you can also get the current update set sys_id using below script in global scope:

new GlideUpdateSet().get()
