"Add to Update Set" link disappeared

[julianada-s]

Hi friends! 🙂

Would you smart guys know why the "Add to update set" link just vanished (after upgrade). I read that could be the disabled Ui Action, but there's no such Ui Action called "Add to Update Set" that I could find. Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks!!!

"Add to Update Set" is not an out-of-the-box feature 

Fix options:

1. Reinstall the "Add to Update Set Utility" from ServiceNow Share.
2. Check if the OOB alternative works for you — activate the "Include in Update Set" plugin, configurable under System Update Sets → Include in Update Set Properties (properties: include_in_update_set.update_record_before_capture and include_in_update_set.hide_on_tables).
3. Quick script workaround if you need it immediately:

var rec = new GlideRecord('your_table');
rec.get('your_sys_id');
new GlideUpdateManager2().saveRecord(rec);

Hi @julianada-s 

Isn't it just because you did a clone from PROD? Add to update set is not OOTB but a utility available to import to your instance.

Hi @julianada-s 

"Add to update set" features come from a utility tool.

A global UI Action for admins that will add any record (plus attachments & translations) to the active update set.

In the case of multi-scope record sets, the UI Action will automatically generate appropriate update sets in each application scope, bundling them under a batch update set for simple promotion to other ServiceNow instances. ** Requires the 'Update Set Batching (com.glide.system_hierarchy_update_set)' plug-in **

-Appears as a link at the bottom of each record
-For adding multiple records at once, appears as a drop-down menu option on each list
