UI Choice List Action for Templates

[gaidem]

Let's say you want to be on a list of records and apply a template to the selected records on a list.

Here's a UI Action List script I wrote:

function applyTemplate() {
    var counter = 0;
    var sysparm_query = g_list.getChecked();
    var tempGR = new GlideRecord('sys_template');
    tempGR.addQuery('name', 'Reset Password');
    tempGR.query();
    if (tempGR.next()) {
        var tblGR = new GlideRecord(tempGR.table);
        tblGR.addQuery('sys_id', 'IN', sysparm_query);
        tblGR.query();
        while (tblGR.next()) {
            counter++;
            var queryStr = tempGR.template.toString();
            queryStr = queryStr.split('^');
            if (queryStr != 'EQ') {
                for (i = 0; i < queryStr.length; i++) {
                    tblGR[queryStr<i>.split("=")[0]] = queryStr<i>.split("=")[1];
                    tblGR.update();
                }
            }
        }
    }
    alert(counter + " records updated");
    location.reload();
}
