getting system property value to Client script

[servicenow14710]

Hello, in a client script ,im using the below line, where the sys_id is stored in sys_properties table

g_form.hideRelatedList('REL:sys_id');

How can i bring that value and append in the line instead of using sys_id.

Any suggestions.Thank you

Hi @servicenow14710 ,

To bring the value stored in the sys_properties table and append it to the line instead of using the string "sys_id," you need to retrieve the value from the database and substitute it into the script. Here's an example

// Assuming you have a variable 'propertyName' that contains the name of the property storing the sys_id value
var sysId = gs.getProperty(propertyName);
if (sysId) {
  // Use the retrieved sys_id value in your script
  g_form.hideRelatedList('REL:' + sysId);
} else {
  // Handle the case when the property is not found or doesn't have a value
  gs.info("Property not found or value is empty");
}

why to store that in system property? the REL:sys_id will always be the same when you migrate to test and production instance

@Ankur Bawiskar Since we are removing hardcodeds sys ids from scripts
