Hi Rishi,

On the user table, Use math.random() function available with Javascript. Follow : Random Number Generator

To set the value to the password field, use the setValue() function available in the Glide Record API.

Let me know if you need any more help on this.

Hi Rishi,

Try below script.This will generate a random string of 8 characters.You can use it in both business rule or client script.

Try below script inside a client script and see the alert.

var string_length = 8;

              var randomstring = '';

              for (var i=0; i<string_length; i++) {

  randomstring = Math.random().toString(36).slice(-8);

              }

  alert(randomstring);

Thanks,

Mihir

thanks Mihir,it's working good...

There is one more field "         Password valid till"-this should show the endtime duration.For eg: if a user selects the validity of 4 hours then the"Password valid till" field should show the time   of 4 hours later from now.Can u help on this too.I am a beginner.

Thanks!

gs.hoursAgo(integer)   function calculate the time by hours from current time.

Please go through below link for your reference

GlideSystem Date and Time Functions - ServiceNow Wiki

It is a server sided function.

So you can do it by using business rule or by using Glide ajax in client script.

Thanks,

Mihir
