autoSysFields
‘autoSysFields’ is used to disable the update of ‘sys’ fields (Updated, Created, etc.) for a particular update. This really is only used in special situations. The primary example is when you need to perform a mass update of records to true up some of the data but want to retain the original update timestamps, etc.
//Change the category of all 'software' incidents to 'hardware' without updating sys fields
var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
gr.addQuery('category', 'software');
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
gr.category = 'hardware';
gr.autoSysFields(false);
gr.update();
}
var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
gr.addQuery('category', 'software');
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
gr.category = 'hardware';
gr.autoSysFields(false);
gr.update();
}
