How hide some fields from "i" or "Info" button on a request for field

Hello everyone

 

In a request for field, when we click on the "i" we get a list with several fields, I wanted to know if it is possible to hide some of these fields. I didn't want to use ACL, is there any other way? Because when it is a request for, one user can choose another and should not be able to see all the fields of the other user.

Yes you can change the view of the reference icon by going to this: 

<your instance name>.service-now.com/<table name>.do?sysparm_view=sys_popup

 

And then it will reflect across your instance with the fields you select 🙂 

 

Sometimes you also need to correct it using this article, if the view is not applicable on portals etc.: https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0745595

So this is a reference to the sys_user table. You will need to create a new view for your User table called 'sys_popup' and customize the form layout of this view. This will then be used for every reference preview.

YTank you, i already created the sys_popup view. However, even when I change the view to sys_popup and go back to the catalog form it always stays in the default view.

Hi, 

Please see the link I've shared below: https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0745595  

 

It could be because it is in a specific view (sp maybe :))
