Hi all,
Can you please help me with an basic issue I am facing?
So, the issue is, I have a requirement to add a field that needs to have the possibility of be editable in the Agent Mobile App for FSM, in this case is on the Work Task table. So, I have added it in the Edit work Input form screen, which until here, all seems to be fine. The issue is, I can update the field, however, when I save it, it doesn't reflect either in the mobile form or the backend UI, what am I missing?
Unfortunately, seems that the Servicenow trainning for mobile development was taken down, so I can't get this information anywhere.
Best regards

Yeah, that was the way I learnt to develop in the Mobile app, but seems that they have changed the way of it working. Or at least I don't find any of those objects.

Hi @Nuno Oliveira ,
If the field appears editable but doesn’t save, please ensure it’s correctly mapped to the Work Task table, and that the user has the necessary write access via ACLs. Also, verify that the Data Item used in the mobile app allows updates.
These steps mostly resolve the issue. try and let me know
Hope this information is helpful
