Hello @__ __140
Here's a general outline of how you might approach changing labels in the Contextual Search Formatter in ServiceNow:
Access Contextual Search Formatter Configuration:
Navigate to "System Properties" > "Contextual Search" > "Formatters" to access the formatter configurations.
Identify the Relevant Formatter:
Review the list of formatters to find the one you want to modify. Each formatter is associated with a search source, and you need to identify the correct one.
Modify Formatter Labels:
Edit the formatter configuration to modify labels. This typically involves writing scripts using server-side scripting languages like JavaScript or server-side scripting in GlideScript.
Save and Test:
After making changes, save the formatter configuration.
Perform test searches to see if the labels are displaying correctly and according to your changes.
Here's a simple example of what a GlideScript might look like to change labels in the Contextual Search Formatter:
// Assume you're editing the formatter for the "incident" search source
if (current.source == "incident") {
// Change the label for the short description
result.title = "Incident Title: " + result.title;
// Change the label for the description
result.description = "Incident Description: " + result.description;
}
