[shaik_irfan]

Hi,

On the Service portal once user clicks the button i am getting all the details from the html using input method and i am able to create a record with below script

var gr = new GlideRecord('u_qa');
gr.initialize();
gr.question = input.u_questions;
gr.name = input.name;
gr.insert();

this goes and create a record u_qa table but i want the sys id of the created of record as a response. can anyone please help me how to do that ?

gr.initialize();
gr.question = input.u_questions;
gr.name = input.name;
var s = gr.insert();
gs.info(s);

If you store the value of .insert to a variable you can use it.

See below script

var gr = new GlideRecord('u_qa');
gr.initialize();
gr.question = input.u_questions;
gr.name = input.name;
var sys_id = gr.insert();

You can get the sys_id of the record by storing it in variable

you can then re-use it

var gr = new GlideRecord('u_qa');
gr.initialize();
gr.question = input.u_questions;
gr.name = input.name;
var sysId = gr.insert();

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
