How to use 'setWorkflow' in scoped app scripting

[sheikhassan]

I am getting an error Access to api 'setWorkflow' has been refused due to the api's cross-scope access policy.

How to fix this error?

Any help wold be appreciated.

hi Mandy,

I have pasted two examples:

Example A: An example to avoid business rule before queries in a script include in the same scope as the object, can be done as follow:

Get a Hr Profile record in a "Human Resources: Core" scope script include

//get the hr profile based on unique key "intuserid"
var hrProfile = new GlideRecord('sn_hr_core_profile');
hrProfile.setWorkflow(false); //Avoid BS Rule before query which limits results for users
var profile = hrProfile.get(intuserid) ? hrProfile : null;

Example B : When you want to query a record in a script include which is in a different scope than the object , you need to have an additional script include.

 Example: script include below Global scope performing a query on HR Scope using the function getHrProfile

//get HR Profile by User_ID (sys_id) from a Script Include in a Global scope
var coreHRScript = new sn_hr_core.scriptsIncludeHrCore();
var grHrProfile = coreHRScript.getHrProfile(User_ID);

gs.info("HR Profile number: "+grHrProfile.getValue('number'));

Below an example script include in Human Resources: Core Scope having a function getHrProfile with a query with setworkflow(false) which avoids Before Business Rule queries.

var scriptsIncludeHrCore = Class.create();
scriptsIncludeHrCore.prototype = {

initialize: function() {},

getHrProfile: function(userId){
	var grHrProfile = new GlideRecord('sn_hr_core_profile');
	grHrProfile.addQuery('user', userId);
	grHrProfile.setWorkflow(false);
	grHrProfile.query();
	if (grHrProfile.next()) {
		return grHrProfile;
	}else{
		return;
	}
},

Please mark helpfull or answered when it does 🙂
