Inhibit business rules for Table API ?

Hello Community,

 

I'm writing a number of data fixes for our cmdb, using the Table api. Sometimes the fixes cause side effects I'd rather not have to clean up afterwards. I presume this is due to business rules.

 

I'd rather do an update with the business rules disabled; comparable to GlideRecord.setWorkflow(false).

 

Is it possible to do this using the Table API ?

 

THX !

Hi @JG6 ,

I don't think the scenario which are you are trying is achievable through Table API.

As Table API is OOB functionality it doesn't allow you anything to code to stop the further processing.

 

If you want the further processing to be stopped then go for Scripted REST API's which has full feasibility to code.

That is actually a very clever solution ! One could actually implement his own table api this way.

many thanks indeed ! 🙂

And yes, that is what 'setWorkflow(false)' does.
