sys_properties : glide.report.enable_alias_config is read-only ("Report Field Aliases" and "Report Value Aliases")

[Julien MALZIS]

Hello,
I would like to use "Report Field Aliases" and "Report Value Aliases" for my reports, but I'm not able to activate the sys_properties glide.report.enable_alias_config even with security_admin activated.
Can you tell me why?

Please see this conversation.

I dont think the full use of this property has been released yet.

That link references something ServiceNow was working on 2 years ago... did they move forward with this or not? Upgrading to Tokyo tomorrow and this is still read only on that version.

Thanks!

you can also enable it from your end by using the background script.

var grProperty = new GlideRecord("sys_properties");
grProperty.get("1a73aca25b2200103c7c0a8a3d81c713"); //sys_id of glide.report.enable_alias_config in sys_properties table.

grProperty.value = "true";
grProperty.update();
