How to fetch attachment from one table and populate that attachment to another table custom field

[s_105]

Hi All, I have a requirement to fetch the attachment from one table and stored/ autopopulate that attachment to custom field in servicenow. This custom field should autopopulate the attachment from table.

Thank you!

@s_105 What type of custom field you are referring here? 

OOTB you can use GlideSysAttachment - copy(String sourceTable, String sourceID, String targetTable, String targetID)

Here is an example

var attachment = new GlideSysAttachment();
var incidentSysID = 'ab1b30031b04ec101363ff37dc4bcbfc';
var incGR = new GlideRecord('incident');
incGR.get(incidentSysID);

var copiedAttachments = attachment.copy('incident', incidentSysID, 'problem', incGR.getValue('problem_id'));
gs.info('Copied attachments: ' + copiedAttachments);

For more information, please refer to https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/vancouver-api-reference/page/app-store/dev_portal/API_reference/G....

Hi @Sandeep Rajput ,

I am able to copy it at table level, but my requirement is to copy that attachment to field not to table.

@s_105 Could you please state your end goal here? Why would you like to copy the attachment at field level?
