Field dependency on mobile agent app

[NP12]

I want to make Sub category field dependent on Category field on mobile agent app.

I have created following records for edit : 

1) Action item 

2) Function -> Action (name : Edit)

3) UI parameter and Action parameter mapping

When I click on Edit action on applet, I am getting Category and Sub category field but sub category field is not showing category dependent value.

Kindly advise if I am missing any step.

Hi NP,

You can configure dependent fields using Action and Action Items,

For example. If you need to configure Category and Subcategory, where subcategory is depended upon category. Configure both of the Action Items in the Item parameters.

Then in UI parameter for category set Field name and source field as category and for subcategory set those fields as subcategory. You can notice dependent values change accordingly.

I have created a youtube video on servicenow mobile application

and 32:00, I had given a demo on this.

thanks. for some reason i had to go to the mobile app builder to see Source field as an option of 'default value type' but once i did it it worked.

Hi NP,

To limit values available on a choice list when creating action functions, you can use reference qualifiers.

*The only limitation for reference qualifiers on mobile is that you can't pass parameters and don't have access to the current object

Best,
