Script Action

[onatdeviren]

Hello,

I have been trying to create a GlideRecord request to a data set in a script action. But I cant call the values of different fields in the data set through dot walking, even though I can call the sys id of the data set. 
And when I run the code as a Background script it works just fine... Any idea why it doesnt work as a script action? Thanks! 

My Code: 

        var request_id = event.parm2 //this is the sys_id I want to call

        var data_set = new GlideRecord("table_name");

        if (data_set.get(request_id)) {

            gs.info("test Number: " + data_set.getValue("number")); 

        // Get Value function returns "null". (Not if I run this exact code as Background Script)  

        } else {

            gs.info("Record not found");

        }

Can you send the exact code you are using?

I just changed the table name and the sys_id. But that's the exact code I have



var request_id = 'insert_sys_id'; // I'm not allowed to share any kind of company info pls replace it with a sys_id

var data_set = new GlideRecord("my_table"); //again not allowed to name the table

if (data_set.get(request_id)) {

gs.info("Onat test Number: " + data_set.getDisplayValue());

} else {

gs.info("Onat test Record not found");

}

I actually had
data_set.getValue("number"); 

instead of getDisplayValue
