How to pass the Dynamic value using Soap Message?

[lvakare]

As we have ${current.short_description} (Here current refers to Incident table) to read the values dynamically In REST.How to pass the same thing Using Soap Message.Instead of passing ${current.short_description} in variable section .I want to pass short description value from incident table to setStringParameter.I am using below script:

try {

var s = new sn_ws.SOAPMessageV2('SoapMSG', 'methodName');

s.setStringParameter('field.fieldName', 'incident.short_description');

s.setStringParameter('field.applicationName', 'ven011');

s.setStringParameter('field.clearTextValue', 'Hello');

var response = s.execute();

var responseBody = response.getBody();

var xmlDoc = new XMLDocument2();

xmlDoc.parseXML(responseBody);

var resultText = xmlDoc.getNodeText('//clearTextValue');

current.description = resultText ;

current.update();

}

catch(ex) {

var message = ex.getMessage();

}

In the above script at line number 5 I want to read the value from incident table, short description field(I tried with current.short_description but it does work for me).I want to get the clearTextValue using getNodeText method and assign it to resultText variable.

Can any one help in resolving above Query?

Earlier I use to use below script(REST) and it works fine for me.Not with Helsinki I am not able to get the exact result what I am expected to get:

In variable section I use to pass:

applicationName=ven011,fieldName=current.description,clearTextValue=${current.short_description}

try

  {

var jsonString=activity.output;

var xmlDoc = new XMLDocument2();

xmlDoc.parseXML(jsonString);

var resultText = xmlDoc.getNodeText('//clearTextValue');

current.description = resultText ;

current.update();

}

catch(ex)

{

  var message = ex.getMessage();

}

Hi Lokesh,

Where are you running this script from? If you run it from a business rule on the incident table, then current.short_description will give you what you need.

s.setStringParameter('field.fieldName', current.short_description);

Unless, you are asking to literally use the incident.short_description as a definition to table and field name to get a value? If that's the case, you could just parse it.

var s = 'incident.short_description';

var tableName = s.split('.')[0];

var fieldName = s.split('.')[1];

Then you can use a GlideRecord query on tableName to retrieve the value of fieldName. This is a great place to use getValue(fieldName), by the way. The big question is WHICH incident record do you want?

ctomasi: I am running this script from workFlow.I created workflow to run om Incident Table.Then in the soap message in sensor section I am passing above script.Before in the variable section I use clearTextValue=${current.short_description} and it use to read short description value from incident table.But from helsinki if i use the same script it does work for me.

Have you tried

clearTextValue = current.short_description;

in the sensor script instead of ${current.short_description}

ctomasi:Yes, I have tried with clearTextValue = current.short_description; but still no luck.
