How to get choice list value of a filed through Rest API.

[jobin1]

Hi All,

We have a custom table called u_email_client and here we have a filed called u_status.

The requirement is whenever the insert is happening that time it should be set u_status choice list to Received(this Received choice list option is already available we need to utilize the same).

How we can achieve this?

i tried below script in rest API but not working

var emailClient = new GlideRecord('u_email_client');
emailClient.initialize();
emailClient.u_subject = short_description;
emailClient.u_status ="ed2ee3a3376aba0021865ca543990e5a";//sys id of choice list "Received"
emailClient.u_item = num2;

emailClient.insert();

@Ankur Bawiskar Any idea?

Hi,

it's choice and not reference so give value

var emailClient = new GlideRecord('u_email_client');
emailClient.initialize();
emailClient.u_subject = short_description;
emailClient.u_status ="Received"; // give choice value here
emailClient.u_item = num2;

emailClient.insert();

Thanks Ankur. I tried the same initially but the spell was wrong.
