UI Action that copies attachments from one record to another

[JJG]

Hello, 

I have a UI action that creates a new record in a new table, it then copies all of the old info and inputs it into the new record. However, I would like the attachments to transfer as well. How can I achieve this? 

Here is what I have so far:

var gr = new GlideRecord('x_utsll_candidate_candidate_tracking');

gr.first_name = current.first_name;
gr.email_address = current.email_address;
gr.last_name = current.last_name;

gr.insert();

How can I also transfer the attachments?

Hi there,

Is this also about different instances like your other question? Or is this on the same instance?

If same instance. Should the old records and old attachments be kept or are these removed later? Asking because you could also remap the attachments, in that not needed to copy them.

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,

This is a separate question from the other one we are working on together. I need a script that finds the current records attachments and then copies them over to the new record.
