GlideRecord is not a constructor Error

[Stephan S_]

Hi Community,

i have a little UI-Action, wich exports my Cases and sets them from one state to another.

As I am moving to Orlando, my UI-Action does not work anymore and I have no clue why. Can you please help out?

The Error:

The Code:

function downloadExcel(){
var checked = g_list.getChecked(); // get's the sys_id of the checked records
var query = "sys_idIN" + checked.toString();
var rows = checked.split(",").length; // rows to be sent to the export function
// this code you can move to script include and go GlideAjax as well
var gr = new GlideRecord('x_bhhgh_his_cases_his_cases');
gr.addQuery('sys_id', 'IN', checked);
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
gr.state = 6;
gr.update();
}
var view = "Workspace"; // set this to default for columns present in default view for list layout
// set this to empty if you want all the columns present in the list layout including the customized ones.
var dialog = new GwtPollDialog('x_bhhgh_his_cases_his_cases', query, rows, view, 'unload_excel_xlsx');
dialog.execute();
}

Commenting out Line 6 to 11 (the part where the State gets modyfied) everthing runs properly...

Thanks a lot in advance!!!

Best Regards,

Stephan

Hello Stephan,

GlideRecord is basically a server side code. You have to call Si and keep this code inside SI. You should not use this in client script.

Hi Stephan,

It seems your UI action code is in custom scope "x_bhhgh"

so GlideRecord in client side is not allowed in scoped application.

you can perform GlideAjax to update the state for those records selected as below

UI Action:

function downloadExcel(){
var checked = g_list.getChecked(); // get's the sys_id of the checked records
var query = "sys_idIN" + checked.toString();
var rows = checked.split(",").length; // rows to be sent to the export function
// this code you can move to script include and go GlideAjax as well

 var ga = new GlideAjax('updateRecords');
    ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'updateRecorWithValue');
    ga.addParam('sysparm_checked', checked);
    ga.getXML(processResponse);
    
    function processResponse(response) {
    var result = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
    }

var view = "Workspace"; // set this to default for columns present in default view for list layout
// set this to empty if you want all the columns present in the list layout including the customized ones.
var dialog = new GwtPollDialog('x_bhhgh_his_cases_his_cases', query, rows, view, 'unload_excel_xlsx');
dialog.execute();
}

Script Include: It should be client callable; ensure it is in your custom scope

var updateRecords = Class.create();
updateRecords.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

	updateRecorWithValue: function(){

		var checked = this.getParameter('sysparm_checked');
		var gr = new GlideRecord('x_bhhgh_his_cases_his_cases');
		gr.addQuery('sys_id', 'IN', checked);
		gr.query();
		while(gr.next()){
			gr.state = 6;
			gr.update();
		}
	},

	type: 'updateRecords'
});

Hi Ankur,

i tryed your code - The dialog opens and downloads. But the State gets not updated. Also I see no Error-Message 😞

Do you have any more clues?

Thanks!

Hi Stephan,

please share your script include screenshot
