How to find a related list back end name?

[Community Alums]

Hi All,

I need to hide a related list based on field1 value. My related list name "Test Requests", i have written the below code. It is not working.

function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if (g_form.getValue('u_request') == 'test') {
g_form.hideRelatedList('test_requests');
} else {
g_form.hideRelatedList('test_requests');
}
}

Regards,

Sirraj

Hi Sirraj,

You can follow these steps:

1) Search in navigator

2) Search by your table and view(if any)

3) Open the required record and you will find backend name of related list as in image.

Please mark helpful if it solves the purpose

Hi Shivani,

I am getting sys_id kind of thing. Not names.

Ok, that means it's a custom related list so it will show sys-id. Modify it to:

Related list name : REL:9d7c170acba7330016e9582df8076d7d

then modify script to

g_form.hideRelatedList('REL:9d7c170acba7330016e9582df8076d7d');
