How to pass the current object in ui page(html) to processing script ?

[Kevin Smith2]

Hi,

I have a requirement to pass the current object from html to processing script.

Here is my code snippet:

HTML:

<g:evaluate var="jvar_taskobj" jelly="true" object="true">
			
			var base_table_name = RP.getWindowProperties().get('sysId');
			var gr = new GlideRecord("wm_task");
			gr.addQuery('sys_id',base_table_name);
			gr.query();
			gr.next();
			gr;
	</g:evaluate>

Processing script:

if ('false' == cancelled) {
var clone = new SMTask().cloneTask(taskobj);
(new StateFlow().processFlow(taskobj, '41dfa2e0d7630100fceaa6859e61035d', 'manual'));
gs.addInfoMessage(gs.getMessage("Cloned from {0}", task_number));
response.sendRedirect("wm_task.do?sys_id=" + clone);
}

How can I pass the current object in the above code "taskobj" is not working.

Thanks

Kevin

Yes, Ankur it is returning the new record.

Hi Kevin,

so it is giving the glide record object

please update as below to get the sys_id for redirection to work:

if ('false' == cancelled) {

    gs.log('Inside sysid is: ' + task_id);
    var gr = new GlideRecord('wm_task');
    gr.get(task_id);

    var clone = new SMTask().cloneTask(gr);
    gs.log('Clone sysid is: ' + clone.sys_id);
    (new StateFlow().processFlow(gr, '41dfa2e0d7630100fceaa6859e61035d', 'manual'));
    gs.addInfoMessage(gs.getMessage("Cloned from {0}", task_number));
    response.sendRedirect("wm_task.do?sys_id=" + clone.sys_id);
}

There is no default current object associated with a ui page, you need to pass in the sysid as a url parameter and then use gliderecord to look it up and update it in the processing script or client script (via ajax).

 How are you accessing the record you wish to update? GlideRecord Class should be able to do this, so perhaps you have a script error in the way you're calling GlideRecord. Here is an example (note that the GlideRecord Class is called inside the evaluate tags and can be used in other evaluate sections once defined/retrieved).

<g2:evaluate jelly="true">


      // Get sys_id from URL parameter


      var incSysid = RP.getParameterValue("sysparm_sys_id");


      // Get GlideRecord


      var current = new GlideRecord('incident');


      if(current.get(incSysid)){


              // do something with the record here


      }


</g2:evaluate>


<p>Incident State Before Update: $[current.state.getDisplayValue()]</p>


<g2:evaluate jelly="true">


      // Update State to Closed


      current.state = 7;


      //current.update();


</g2:evaluate>


<p>Incident State After Update: $[current.state.getDisplayValue()]</p>
