how to retrieve view in business rule

[cc_lee]

Hi All

Anyway to retrieve view name in business rule? I tried current.view.name, view.name, sysparm_view.. but all cannot get the view. Anyone one can help?

Thank you.

I would greatly appreciate this too!

I have tried these to no avail:
var view = sysparm_view;

I need to get the view so I can perform some logic to set a reference qualifier as per:
http://wiki.service-now.com/index.php?title=Reference_Qualifiers#Advanced_Reference_Qualifiers

If the view is ess, then I only want to show certain things in my reference field.

Trying to get the view from a global business rule is turning out to be very challenging - any help appreciated!

If I am not wrong the following code will help to check for the view names in Business rule and based on the name we can derive the action.

if (view.startsWith("ess"))

        return;

  if (view == "sys_ref_list")

        return;

var current_view = RP.getParameterValue('sysparm_view');

or

var current_view = RP.getViewID();

should work.

hi I have created an UI action in approver form..." UPDATE RITM",

function displayRITMRecord() {

        var dialog = new GlideDialogForm('Review & Update ', 'sc_req_item');

        dialog.setSysID(g_form.getValue('document_id'));

        dialog.addParm('sysparm_view','Approver');     ---- it works only for ITIL users and not for ESS users. So, used the below global business rule.

        dialog.addParm('sysparm_form_only','true');

        dialog.render();

}

created a global business rule as below to show the APPROVER view( in RITM )   to ESS approver when clicks on UPDATE RITM.

// populate the default value for the caller

function sc_req_itemGetViewName() {

      if (gs.hasRole("itil"))

  {return;}

  if (view.startsWith("approver"))

      {return;}

  if (view == "sys_ref_list")

      {return;}

  answer = "approver";

}

function sc_req_item_listGetViewName() {

sc_req_itemGetViewName();

}

I dont see any luck in getting my APPROVER view shown to the end user through UI Action. Kindly help
