Rest API to get the form layout and fields

Raja16 · ‎08-21-2019

Hi,

Do we have any Rest API to get the form layout and fields for Customer service relationships ( Contact, Account etc). If yes, Please provide the details about that. Otherwise, provide suggestion for how to get it. Thanks!

I find the API's and It's worked. We need to achieve this using multiple API's.

https://<<instance_name>>/api/now/table/sys_ui_element?sysparm_query=sys_ui_section.view.name=<<view_name>>&sys_ui_section.name=<<object_name>>

https://<<instance_name>>/api/now/table/sys_dictionary?sysparm_query=name=<<table_name>>^element=<<element_name>>

Thanks so much! it worked for me as well!

Example:

Fetch the fields of the incident form layout:

/now/table/sys_ui_element?sysparm_query=sys_ui_section.view.name=ess&sys_ui_section.name=incident

ess= Self Service

Fetch the metadata of each field (data type, length, etc):

now/table/sys_dictionary?sysparm_query=name=incident^element=caller_id

Cheers!
