sys_class_name is a field present in cmdb_ci table. You can get the details of that column from the dictionary entry.

Hi Praveen,

sys_class_name is the system field present on the table which basically gives the table name. For example

Sample script.

var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');

gr.get('9d385017c611228701d22104cc95c371'); //Hardcoded sys_id for testing purpose

gs.log(gr.sys_class_name); //Will return "incident" i.e the table name 

I hope this answers your question.

Hello @Pradeep Sharma ,
I'm wondering if it is possible to get the name of the current table in AjaxUtils?
thank you!

In above case i.e ${sys approval.sys_class_name} it will return the class name of the record for which the approval is raised for ex : incident,change_request,sc_req_item...
