How to remove the phone number field from a profile in portal page?

snow_beginner · ‎04-24-2024

Hi,

So I have a requirement that I need to remove the business phone number from the profile page on our service portal (we use employee center). How would I do that?

I have pressed CTRL and rightclick and have been able to get the name of the widget - User Profile - but not sure where the changes would need to be made. Below are the server script and client controller code from that widget. I am unable to copy and paste the html/css in these records.

server script

(function() {
		if (input && input.action === "update_session_tracking_info") {
		gs.getSession().putProperty("usage_tracking_allowed_for_session", input.user_tracking);
		return;
		
	}

	// populate the 'data' object
	// e.g., data.table = $sp.getValue('table');
	data.sysUserID = $sp.getParameter("sys_id");
	if (!data.sysUserID)
			data.sysUserID = gs.getUser().getID();
	var sysUserGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
	data.userExists = sysUserGR.get(data.sysUserID) && sysUserGR.canRead();

	if (data.userExists) {
		sysUserGR = GlideScriptRecordUtil.get(sysUserGR).getRealRecord();
		data.table = sysUserGR.getRecordClassName();
		data.name = sysUserGR.getValue("name");
		var loggedInSysUserID = gs.getUser().getID();
		data.connectEnabled = GlidePluginManager().isActive('com.glide.connect');
		data.liveProfileID = "";
		data.dateTimeFormat = gs.getDateTimeFormat();

		//get live profile id for sending connect messages
		if (GlidePluginManager().isActive('com.glideapp.live_common')) {
			var liveProfileGR = new GlideRecord("live_profile");
			liveProfileGR.addQuery("document", data.sysUserID);
			liveProfileGR.query();
			if (liveProfileGR.next()) {
				data.liveProfileID = liveProfileGR.getValue("sys_id");
				data.liveProfileModel = $sp.getForm("live_profile", data.liveProfileID)._fields;
				// live_profile short_description is shown here as "Bio", so popup label/hint must reflect that
				if (data.liveProfileModel.short_description) {
					data.liveProfileModel.short_description.label = gs.getMessage("Bio");
					data.liveProfileModel.short_description.hint = gs.getMessage("Biography");
				}
			} else
				data.connectEnabled = false; //can't find a live profile for this user, so lets not integrate Connect
		}

		data.isLoggedInUsersProfile = loggedInSysUserID.equals(data.sysUserID);
		var sysUserForm = $sp.getForm(data.table, data.sysUserID);
		data.sysUserView = sysUserForm._view;
		data.sysUserModel = sysUserForm._fields;
		data.sysUserModelList = [];

		for (var i = 0; i < data.sysUserView.length; i++) {
			data.sysUserModelList.push(data.sysUserModel[data.sysUserView[i].name]);
		}

		data.directReports = [];
		data.teamData = {};
		data.teamData.direct_reports = [];
		data.teamData.members = [];

		if (!data.isLoggedInUsersProfile) {
			data.teamData.user = {
				sys_id: data.sysUserID
			}
		}

		//Calculate manager
		var managerGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
		if (managerGR.get(sysUserGR.getValue("manager"))) {
			data.teamData.manager = buildUser(managerGR);
		}

		//Calculate team
		if (data.teamData.manager) {
			var teamGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
			teamGR.addActiveQuery();
			teamGR.orderBy("name");
			teamGR.addQuery("manager", data.teamData.manager.sys_id);
			teamGR.addQuery("sys_id", "!=", data.sysUserID);
			teamGR.query();
			while(teamGR.next())
				data.teamData.members.push(buildUser(teamGR));
		}

		//Calculate direct reports
		var directReportGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
		directReportGR.addActiveQuery();
		directReportGR.orderBy("name");
		directReportGR.addQuery("manager", data.sysUserID);
		directReportGR.query();

		while(directReportGR.next())
			data.teamData.direct_reports.push(buildUser(directReportGR));

		data.teamWidget = $sp.getWidget('sp-my-team', {glyph: 'user', color: 'primary'});
		if(!input)
			data.userPreferencesWidget = $sp.getWidget('user-preferences', {glyph: 'user', color: 'primary'});

		}

	function buildUser(userGR) {
		return {
			email: userGR.getValue("email") || "",
			first_name: userGR.getValue("first_name"),
			last_name: userGR.getValue("last_name"),

I also ctrl+rightclicked on the field business phone and navigated to instance page navigator and found a chart which shows user profile coming from hri_user_profile and below are its server script and client controller

server script

var sysUserGR = new GlideRecord("sys_user");

var hrProfileGR = new GlideRecord("sn_hr_core_profile");
hrProfileGR.get("user", data.sysUserID);
data.hrProfileID =  hrProfileGR.getUniqueValue();

data.userExists = sysUserGR.get(data.sysUserID);
data.profileExists = hrProfileGR.get(data.hrProfileID);

if (data.profileExists) {
	data.name = sysUserGR.getValue("name");
	var loggedInSysUserID = gs.getUser().getID();

	data.isLoggedInUsersProfile = loggedInSysUserID.equals(data.sysUserID);
  
  var hrProfileForm = $sp.getForm("sn_hr_core_profile", data.hrProfileID);
	data.hrProfileView = hrProfileForm._view;
	data.hrProfileModel = hrProfileForm._fields;
	data.hrProfileModelList = [];
	
	for (var i = 0; i < data.hrProfileView.length; i++)

	};
}

Also navigated to employee profiles > overview UI configuration > contact details (this table - sn_employee_overview_section) there I found a list of overview section details and set the mobile phone to active=false but that did not do anything.

Apologies I am unable to attach photos on this today for some reason, but please help. I am very lost on how to do this.

Did you try commenting out the 'phone' line in the script?

Please mark any helpful or correct solutions as such. That helps others find their solutions.

@snow_beginner
you can try add the field in excluded fields in client script.

Hi @lipan and @Mark Manders

Thanks for your ideas. The solution was actually very simple and I just had to change the view of the record to serviceportal and hide the fields using form layout 😕
