GlideAjax not working in Scoped Applications

[jpavanaryan]

I am trying to call Script Include from UI Script in scoped application. Surprisingly UI script unable to contact with Script Include. Script Include is accessible from all applications.

Ui Script:

function loadMyItineraries3()
 {
       var ga = new GlideAjax('loadMyItineraries');
   ga.addParam('sysparm_name','loadItineraries');
   ga.getXML(getResponse);
 }   
function getResponse(response)
{
   var responseString = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
   alert(responseString);
}

Script include:

var loadMyItineraries = Class.create();
loadMyItineraries.prototype = Object.extendsObject(global.AbstractAjaxProcessor, 
{
   loadItineraries : function ()
   {
   gs.log('Inside loadItineraries Function');
       var i=0; 
       var list=[];
       var gr=new GlideRecord('XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX');
       gr.addQuery('entered_by',gs.getUserID());
       gr.query();
       while(gr.next())
       {
     var data=gr.group.getDisplayValue()+'\t'+gr.number+'\t'+gr.traveler.getDisplayValue()+'\t'+gr.post.getDisplayValue()+'\t'+gr.start_date+'\t'+gr.end_date+'\t'+gr.sys_updated_on+'\t'+gr.status+'\n';
   list[i++]=data;
   }
   gs.log('List '+list.toString());
   return list.toString();
   }
});

And it's "Client Callable" too, yes?

Yes, it is client callable.

Hi jpavanaryan,

A few things to note:

1. You have a Script Include and UI Script which provides functions that can call that Script Include, using GlideAjax. You still need to get that UI Script onto a form or page. I assume you have a Client Script which loads the UI Script via the ScriptLoader, or that you are using this in a UI Page and have directly added the appropriate <script> tag to that page, to bring the UI Script in?

2. gs.log() is not available to scoped scripts. There is a scoped logging API you can use instead.

3. If you check your node log files when testing the above scripts, as-is, you should find exceptionslike this:

WARNING *** WARNING *** Function log is not allowed in scope x_yourscope. Use gs.debug() or gs.info() instead

com.glide.script.fencing.MethodNotAllowedException: Function log is not allowed in scope x_yourscope. Use gs.debug() or gs.info() instead

at com.glide.script.fencing.ScopedScriptableObject.checkWhitelistAccess(ScopedScriptableObject.java:131)

at com.glide.script.fencing.ScopedScriptableObject.shouldAllow(ScopedScriptableObject.java:99)

at com.glide.script.fencing.WrappedScriptableObject.get(WrappedScriptableObject.java:57)

If you ensure that you are actually bringing your UI Script into the page, and that you are using the Scoped Logging API, your code should work.

Thanks

I am using this with Content Pages. I know gs.log() does not work in Scoped app (found out while testing in background scripts), but still I was blind. Thanks Cory for saving my day.
