ServiceNow Learning 57: Handling duration type field in APIs (OOB and Custom)

[Shamma Negi]

Hi All,

When you get the duration field backend value in OOB Table API then it gives this result:

1970-01-01 00:00:00

When you get the duration field backend value by using below script: current.<duration_field_name> then it gives same result.

1970-01-01 00:00:00

When you get the duration backend field value by using this script: current.<duration_field_name>.getDisplayValue() then it gives this result.

32 minutes

So, you have to use different function in order to get different results.

Hope it helps.
