There have been few blog posts and share utilities by others that inspired coming up with this cool feature. If you are fan of those (which I am), then you might like this!

Wouldn't it be cool to be able to right click on the filter breadcrumb and copy a encoded gliderecord similar to copying query?

To begin, creating global UI script is a bad practice and I avoid creating them as much as possible. But, you can do few cool things using a global UI script that wouldn't be possible otherwise. This is one such exception for using a global UI script that you can add in your system and get a cool menu that will give you a block of encoded query. I would recommend keeping this Development environment alone so that you don't run into risk of post upgrade issues or cause any other impact in case something changes in ServiceNow. Also, why would you need this on production when you are not supposed to do any manual work on Prod?

 

You can find the menu/utility uploaded on share site HEREThe script is available on Github if you want to enhance it. Feel free to tweak the script if you notice any improvement opportunities and make sure you share the updated version here. And thanks to jim.coyne, for the inspiration (this post is a follow up of this).

 

Keep sharing - Keep learning !
