How to add current time + extra time on ATF script

[Naveen87]

Hey Developer,

I need to write a script to add 3minutes to current time & set these values on Planned state date on change request form.

Ex:- current time + 3minutes & then set this value to Planned start date on change record via ATF script.

Please suggest.

Thank you

you can use ServiceNow's GlideDateTime API to achieve this. Here's an example script to add 3 minutes to the current time and set the result to the "Planned start date" field on a change request form:

// Get the current time
var currentTime = new GlideDateTime();

// Add 3 minutes
currentTime.addMinutes(3);

// Set the value on the Planned start date field
var changeRequest = new GlideRecord('change_request');
changeRequest.addQuery('sys_id', current.sys_id); // Replace current with the sys_id of the current change request
changeRequest.query();

if (changeRequest.next()) {
  changeRequest.setValue('start_date', currentTime);
  changeRequest.update();
}
