RITM Rest API Integration

[reks]

Hi Guys,

I am doing RITM integration servicenow to servicenow using REST API.

I have created REST Outbound POST method.

content = {"number":"${number}","comments":"${comments}","request_item":"${request_item}"}

am setting the values for the above variables.

for the variable 'request_item' -   i want to create a custom payload, where i want to sent the list of all RITM's created for the request with variables for each RITM.

Sample payload.

"request_item": [

              { "number":"RITM1312312", "variables":[ { "name":"BMW", "value":"testing" },{ "name":"BMW1", "value":"testing" } ] },

              { "number":"RITM123123", "variables":[ { "name":"BMW", "value":"testing" },{ "name":"BMW1", "value":"testing" } ] }              

      ]

So that, at the other instance i can print the length of 'request_item' ,which gives me 2 and use for loop and set all variable names with corresponding values.

Please help me like how to set value to the variable (request_item) in the above format and how to fetch the values for the same variable in other system.

var r = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2('RITMIntegration', 'POST');

r.setStringParameterNoEscape ('number', current.number);

r.setStringParameterNoEscape ('comments', current.comments);

Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks,

You may need to work out with JSON array

var vars = [];

var json_1 = { "name":"BMW", "value":"testing" };

var json_2 ={ "name":"BMW1", "value":"testing" };

vars.push(json_1);

vars.push(json_2);

r.setStringParameterNoEscape ('variables', vars);

Thank You

If i want to pass the values dynamically ?

like below.

var json_1 = { "number:"+curent.number+", comments:"+current.comments };

if i give above code, than its showing me error (missing :)

Thanks,

Here is some dynamic code, you need to determine the total number of items

var vars = [];

for(var i=0 ;   i< arr.length; i++){

  var json = { "name": arr[i], "value": arr[i] };

  vars.push(json);

}

r.setStringParameterNoEscape ('variables', vars);

Thank You

If i want to the fetch the values for the variable at other system.

var requestBody = request.body;

var requestData = requestBody.data;

gs.log(requestData.variables.length);

i need to get 2 since am sending 2 RITMS, but here am getting like total length of the string like around 35.

gs.log(requestData.variables[0].name)

getting undefined.
