Group by Priority

[NBK]

How to know the count of incidents in each priority i.e., in priority - 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 separately by using background script.

Hello @NBK , 

You can use this script to get the count of incidents per priority : 

var agg = new GlideAggregate('incident');
agg.addAggregate('count', 'priority'); 
agg.orderBy('priority'); 
agg.query(); 
while (agg.next()) { 
  var priority = agg.priority.getDisplayValue();
  var count = agg.getAggregate('count', 'priority');
  var agg2 = new GlideAggregate('incident');   
  agg2.addAggregate('count', 'priority');
  agg2.orderBy('priority');
  gs.info(priority + ": number of incidents:" + count);
}

I hope you find this helpful!

Best regards,

@NBK Here is the script.

var incidentPriority = new GlideAggregate('incident');
incidentPriority.addAggregate('COUNT');
incidentPriority.groupBy('priority');
incidentPriority.query();
while(incidentPriority.next()){
    gs.info(incidentPriority.getDisplayValue('priority')+'('+incidentPriority.getAggregate('COUNT')+')');
}

Here is how the output looks

Here is how it looks when group by in the list.

Hello @NBK ,

// Create a GlideAggregate object for the incident table
var inc = new GlideAggregate('incident');

// Add a group by clause for the priority field
inc.addAggregate('COUNT', 'priority');

// Group by priority
inc.groupBy('priority');

// Query the records
inc.query();

// Iterate through the result
while (inc.next()) {
    var priority = inc.getValue('priority');
    var count = inc.getAggregate('COUNT', 'priority');
    
    gs.info('Priority ' + priority + ': ' + count + ' incidents');
}
