Where is related list data stored?

danmadzia · ‎04-05-2017

Here is the scenario:

In Stories, in the Related Links area, I have some related lists: Affected CI's, Change Requests, etc.

I can do the usual Edit or New to add records to - lets use Change Request for example. No problem.

I have created a UI action to Create a Change Request from Story which works just fine.

The problem is: How do I add the change request number (or sys_id) to the Change Requests Related List in my UI Action script?

I cannot find where that data is stored.

Thanks!

var changeRequest = ChangeRequest.newNormal();

changeRequest.setValue("short_description", current.short_description);

changeRequest.setValue("description", current.description);

changeRequest.setValue("cmdb_ci", current.cmdb_ci);

changeRequest.setValue("priority", current.priority);

changeRequest.setValue("sys_domain", current.sys_domain);

changeRequest.setValue("company", current.company);

changeRequest.setValue("parent", current.sys_id); // Adds to related records

changeRequest.insert();

Thanks

Thanks for the information. The code did not work as id comes back as undefined. I did some tweaking though and I was able to get this to work:

changeRequest.insert();

current.rfc = changeRequest.getGlideRecord().getUniqueValue();

current.parent = changeRequest.getValue("sys_id");

current.update();

Thanks for all of your help. I really appreciate it.
