How to dynamically change the title of a UI Action from an onchange client script?

[peterraeves]

ServiceNow dynamically changes the label for the additional comments field to contain the text 'customer visible'. I created something similar for work notes, but what about UI Actions? Can we dynamically modify it's text form an onchange client script?

Hey Peter,

I doubt you can do that and ofcourse set label can be done on the field level. But in order meet your requirement you can create another button and set the conditions accordingly for the visibility.

Let me know if you need any help there

I am not proud of what I did, but I solved it by using the following code

var action_name = '<action name of the UI Action';
var label = '<some label>';
var selector = 'button#' + action_name;
$j(selector).each(function(){
   $j(this).html(label);
});

You can do GlideAjax from your client script.

In you GlideAjax script include, you can do GR to sys_ui_action table   and update UI action name.
