Hi All,

 

I had a requirement to hide the "input " text box on the Activity tab based on a condition (Like if incident state is "resolved" I dont want to show that text box). How can I update it? is it possible to do so?

Below is the screenshot.

That text box allows users to add comments to the ticket. Do you also want to prevent users from adding a comment in the platform view of the ticket? If so, then you can control this via ACL. Add/update the ACL so that the field is not writable based on some condition.

You can set conditions on the ACL to prevent writing to the field when state is Resolved. Example:

But before doing that, you should really familiarize yourself with how ACLs work on the platform: https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/tokyo-platform-security/page/administer/contextual-security/conce...
