Hi all,
I have a requirement where the user must attach an excel file on a request for a catalog item.
I want to read the excel doc before submission to check that the excel doc has the right columns. I also want to extract some data that will be used to fill in some of the fields on the CI form.
How would I go about this?
I know to use GlideExcelParser to look in the document, but first I need to be able to find the excel file.
I have the following code but it is not working:
var sys_id = g_form.getValue('sysparm_item_guid');
I also have this piece of code as an option, but I don't really understand how to use it/how to actually reurn the sys_id of the actual excel document that can then be put through the GlideExcelParser functions:
var attachment = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');
attachment.addQuery('table_name', 'sc_cart_item');
attachment.addQuery('table_sys_id', sys_id);
Thank you so much in advance,
G
