GlideAjax from UI Action

[Andrii]

Hi, I'm stuck with trying to call GlideAjax from UI Action ... suppose I need to surrender and agree that it is not possible.

But before I do that - I would like to ask you, experts *)

So I have some UI Action (on a List) that I want to call GlideAjax.

Hi Andri,

I have created a sample example in the below demo instance

https://demo007.service-now.com/login.do

Username : admin

Password : admin

Steps for testing :

Navigate to Incident module and then click on "New Button" on form.

I hope this helps

Yes, Pradeep, your code works on   Incident form and on List of Incidents ... and as I can see - you just used code from WIKI, probably I have some steps that are not standard.

Hello Andrii,

Make sure that you have the Client checkbook selected and that you are wrapping the code in a function. Ex.

function test(){

//Your code here

}

Then on the onClick field call your function:

test();

Could you please explain the details of your requirements?

Thank you.

Edwin, I'm trying to "develop a bicycle" * ... because similar mechanism already available OOTB, but let me describe what I do:

on demo000 I have 2 UI Actions("Merge" and "SetParent") and 1 GlideAjax("SuperGlue") that are used in the following way:

On Incident list I select few Incidents and click on "Merge" - it will bring up dialog without selected Incidents to choose Parent Incident for selected. On th same dialog window I select 1 Incident and click on SetParent that should call GlideAjax and stick together child Incidents (selected previously) and parent Incident.

For now I can not even get initialization function to work from SetParent UI Action - debuging via alert says that SuperGlue (GlideAjax) is not defined.
