Why are client scripts not working in mobile agent?

Krishna Priya · ‎04-22-2020

I have a client script to hide a choice value for a list field depending on the Type field on change. The script works fine on desktop but won't work for mobile agent. I selected "All" for the UI type in the client script configuration and still no luck. I read that client scripts may not work for mobile agent, but I am not sure. If they do not work for agent. I can achieve this functionality?

Client scripts won't run in the newer agent and now mobile ios/android apps, but much of the time you can accomplish your overall requirement in a different way using actions and functions. It's a completely different paradigm than the desktop, so I would run through the Mobile training on the developer site to get familiar with the newer mobile concepts.

It's not working for me , can you explain how it got worked for you ?

Nope, I was super wrong unfortunately @paul_singh@amat. I ended up moving the functionality to a BR but I still find mobile development extremely limiting. @Victor Chen Will basic glide client scripting ever work for agent mobile?

@ctsmith you have mentioned, moving the functionality to a BR. Is it BR will work in Agent mobile application? I get to know UI Policy , Client script won't work in the Agent mobile application.

@Sai Easwer Tej BR does work in mobile agent like any other record update. But, in a more recent version, I controlled the functionality in an action script to either update an asset (with info/error messages) or update multiple in one go. I have more detail about it here. Let me know if you have any questions!
