Setting task_time_worked.time_worked via flow

[Christian Prob2]

Hello,

it's probably super simple but i just don't see it:

I have a flow where one of the flow variables is "effort" with an integer value, representing the effort spend on a task in seconds. Now I want to create a task_time_worked record in the flow.

I get the record created, the user and the task set properly, but for whatever reason, I can't set the time on the record (test runs always come out with time_worked [and/or time_in_seconds] as 0).

I use a script to assign the value to the (duration field) time_worked:

var tWDint = fd_data._1__get_fcr_status.effort*1000;
var timeWorkedDuration = new GlideDuration(tWDint);
return timeWorkedDuration;

But still the resulting record does show time_worked as 0. 

A flow test shows the value correctly:

task=xxx
user=xxx
time_worked=4 Minutes
coalesce_fields=

What am I missing?

Thanks, 

Christian

Hi @Christian Prob2 ,

Can you try like below:

return timeWorkedDuration.getDisplayValue();

Thanks, but that does not work either.

see if you can use 

return timeWorkedDuration.toString();

As a follow up note - I ended up logging a ticket with SN support - imho it should work if you have a flow variable of type duration and then assign it to the task_time_worked.time_worked field, which is of type duration. Support confirmed it is not working ootb. I'll update if I hear more details.
