Although this seeems like a good workaround I don't recommend this solution, especially for scoped applications.
My requirement was to remove the protection policy of an email script. However, I run in all kinds of errors.
This is the fix script I used within the Deployment Pipeline app:
// Edit Protection Policy to Write
(function executeFixScript() {
var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_script_email');
gr.setWorkflow(false); // Prevents business rules from triggering during the update
if (gr.get('<sys_id_of_the_email_script>'')) {
gr.setValue('sys_policy', ''); // Removes the protection policy
var success = gr.update(); // Save the changes and capture success
if (success) {
gs.info('Protection policy successfully updated for script: ' + gr.getValue('name'));
} else {
gs.error('Failed to update the protection policy for script: ' + gr.getValue('name'));
}
} else {
gs.warn('No record found with the provided sys_id.');
}
})();
Even after trying to run the same script in the global scope, it also run into all kinds of issues.
Basically, removing protection policies via fix scripts is not a good idea especially for scoped applications.
