gs.nil() and gs.has() not working in scoped application script.

[PVSK]

gs.nil() and gs.has() not working in scoped application script include. What is the alternative other than making JSUtil scope to "all application access".

Hi,

Do you want to check whether something is nil or has value then use following

var errorMessage = '';

if(!global.JSUtil.doesNotHave(errorMessage))

{

// something is nil or empty

}

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

Hi,

According to the Service Now documentation, the scoped equivalent of gs.nil is the .nil() methos of GlideElement:

if ((!current.u_date1.nil()) && (!current.u_date2.nil())) {
  var start = current.u_date1.getGlideObject().getNumericValue();
  var end = current.u_date2.getGlideObject().getNumericValue();
  if (start > end) {
    gs.addInfoMessage('start must be before end');
    current.u_date1.setError('start must be before end');
    current.setAbortAction(true);
  }
}

This has the obvious downside that you cannot apply it to JavaScript Variables.

Best
Daniel
