Show error message in scripted rest api

[Sneha39]

Hi,

I want to show error message when my caller_id and short_description is empty but here my api is running and creating incident in all the cases

(function process(/*RESTAPIRequest*/ request, /*RESTAPIResponse*/ response) {

  var body = request.body.data;

      // implement resource here

var caller_id = body.caller_id;

      var short_description = body.short_description;

var number = body.number;

var state = body.state;

        var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');

gr.initialize();

        gr.caller_id = caller_id;

gr.short_description = short_description;

if(caller_id && short_description == "")

{

var errorResponse= "<response><result><Message>Record creation failed in ServiceNow </Message></result></response>";   //////////////////// this message is not working

}

else{

        gr.insert();

return {

"custom_message": 'Thanks for raising incident',

              "number": gr.number,

              "short_description": gr.short_description,

              "caller_id": gr.caller_id,

"state": gr.state,

"Priortiy": gr.impact,

"Location": gr.locaion,

"Assignment Group": gr.assignment_group,

"Assignee": gr.assigned_to,

"Created" : gr.opened_at,

"Updated": gr.updated,

"Comments": gr.comment

      };

}

Thanks in advance

try to use gs.addErrorMessage('ERROR!!!!!');

5.1 addErrorMessage(Object)

Adds an error message for the current session. Use getErrorMessages() to retrieve a list of error messages currently being shown.

5.1.1 Input Fields

Parameters: an error object.

5.1.2 Example

 gs.include("PrototypeServer"); var ValidatePasswordStronger = Class.create(); ValidatePasswordStronger.prototype = { process : function() { var user_password = request.getParameter("user_password"); var min_len = 8; var rules = "Password must be at least " + min_len + " characters long and contain a digit, an uppercase letter, and a lowercase letter."; if (user_password.length() < min_len) { gs.addErrorMessage("TOO SHORT: " + rules); return false; } var digit_pattern = new RegExp("[0-9]", "g"); if (!digit_pattern.test(user_password)) { gs.addErrorMessage("DIGIT MISSING: " + rules); return false; } var upper_pattern = new RegExp("[A-Z]", "g"); if (!upper_pattern.test(user_password)) { gs.addErrorMessage("UPPERCASE MISSING: " + rules); return false; } var lower_pattern = new RegExp("[a-z]", "g"); if (!lower_pattern.test(user_password)) { gs.addErrorMessage("LOWERCASE MISSING: " + rules); return false; } return true; // password is OK } }

I have added

if(caller_id && short_description == "")

{

gs.addErrorMessage('ERROR!!!!!');

}

else{

        gr.insert();

}

but still its running on passing empty fields

Thanks
