Form fields does not support the use of ui actions. It is mainly intended to be as a read only component. You have to use Form component to be able to support ui actions.

Steps to create a form:

Take a Form component. Add a Glide Form data broker from @servicenow/now-record-form-connected application

Update the details for the data broker instance:

- Table: incident
- SysID: -1 (for any new record)

Now you have form data available in @data.glide_form_1 prop
Update your form config:

- Sections: @data.glide_form_1.nowRecordFormBlob.sections
- Fields: @data.glide_form_1.nowRecordFormBlob.fields
- Table: incident

By now, you should have your form ready
Next step: Setting up UI actions
Add a Action Bar component on the top of form and update the config as:
- Actions: @data.glide_form_1.nowRecordCommonUiactionbar.actionNodes

That's it! You should have your form ready with a save action. Try creating an incident. It should work as expected.

Let me know if it works or you have any doubts. Thanks!

Hi, sorry for late reply. If you need to edit an existing record, give sys_id of that record instead of -1 in the Step 1 above. That should pre-fill all the data and you can edit and save the record. Thanks!
