How to call script include from another script include.

[Priya Gautum]

Hi All

How can we call script include a function to another script include?

I have one script include function- "countKBArticle: function()" and need to call this function in the new script include but not sure how to call.

Regards,

Priya

Just like you can from any other server scripting area;

Here's an OOB example from the "ValidateSchedule" script include;

Hi Priya,

Please use the below method.

Script Include 1:

Name: MySI

getDemo: function()

{

   gs.log("getDemo");

}

Script Include 2:

Name: MySITest

getDemoTest: function()

{

   var obj = new MySI();     //Create an object of Script include

   obj.getDemo();              //Call the function using the object of script include.

}

Output: 

LOG: getDemo

HI Priya

var a = new otherScriptInclude();
a.otherScriptIncludeFunction();

Please replace your ScriptInclude name 

Thanks and Regards

Hello Priya,

1. You can call script include from another script include as below:

var osi = new otherScriptInclude();
osi.otherScriptIncludeFunction();

2. Way to call script include from Business rule, workflow activity or or from server side script:

var osi = new ScriptIncludeName();
osi.scriptIncludeFunction();

3. Way to call script include from client script, Catalog Client Script or UI policies

var deptName = g_form.getValue('department');
var si =new GlideAjax('ScriptIncludeName'); 
si.addParam('sysparm_name','scriptIncludeFunction'); // you need to use sysparm_name for calling function
si.addParam('sysparm_dept',deptName); // you can add any parameter here in place of sysparm_dept. like sys_dept
si.getXML(setDepartmentHead);

function setDepartmentHead(response){

var deptHead = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute('answer');
g_form.setValue('u_department_head',deptHead);

}

Please mark as Correct Answer/Helpful, if applicable.
Thanks!
