how to know the name of a form section

[sonita]

The requirement is : On the incident form , Closure Information Tab should not show until resolved state is selected. I need to have the name of the section , not the label. In my code I wrote the label , that's why it's not working. my question is how to get the name??

This is my onchange client script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

          var sections = g_form.getSections();

  if(newValue=='Resolved')

    {

    g_form.setSectionDisplay('Closure Information', true);

    }

  else {

          g_form.setSectionDisplay('Closure Information', false);

    }

}

Try:

g_form.setSectionDisplay('closure_information', false);

Refer to: GlideForm (g form) - ServiceNow Wiki

//Here you go

//Tested

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

var stateValue = g_form.getValue('state');

  alert(stateValue);

var sections = g_form.getSections();

  if(stateValue == '6') //resolved

  {

  alert("inside");

  sections[3].style.display = 'none'; //section 3 indicates Closure information

  //g_form.setSectionDisplay('Closure Information', false);

  }

  else

  {

  alert("else");

  sections[3].style.display = 'block';

  }

}

NOTE: make sure you donot have any mandatory fields to hide section

Hi Soni,

You did write approach but you used "Form Section" name in InIt caps. name should be in small letter and there should not be any space. your section name will be

"closure_information".

Please try with below code. i have updated ur script.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

          var sections = g_form.getSections();

  if(newValue=='Resolved')

    {

    g_form.setSectionDisplay('closure_information', true);

    }

  else {

          g_form.setSectionDisplay('closure_information', false);

    }}

Also for some form section details, please refere the below thread.

Thanks, mate, I had a 3 word Form section and was pulling my hair out to why it wasn't working!
