Hi,
I'm trying to hide a variable on the catalogue item but have it displayed in the sc_task record. I assumed that this would be possible via a UI policy which would only be applied to the catalogue item but this isn't working.
Has anyone done something similar?

Hi @Steven Watts2 ,
it should work exactly like this. Could you please show us the configuration? Some screenshots would do.
Regards, Ivan

Hi @Ivan Betev it looks like the variable is being removed as the value is empty. This is the configuration we need as the variable needs to be populated post submission.

have you passed it to the task from your requested item in flow? Is the variable present on the RITM level?

Looking in to this, it appears that ServiceNow is hiding the variable in the sc_task record as it's empty. We need the variable to be, potentially, populated by the fulfillment team after submission.
Any ideas?
