Concatenation in breakdown script

[venori26]

my breakdown script is as below:

current.vulnerability.sys_id;

how do I concatenate a letter 'a' to this?

Hi @venori26 ,

You add try adding a literal 'a' at end of value like

var id = current.getValue('vulnerability'); // sys_id as string

var val = id + "a"; //concatenating a

and use val as variable value in next lines wherever is it useful.

Thanks,

Thank you a lot..Sorry I am new to ServiceNow..I have been trying to do a simple concatenation in breakdown mapping and have not been successful so far. I have a parent table and child table..The plugin ids are available in child table, along with their descriptions. I need to concatenate plugin id and summary.

Parent table: sn_vul_vulnerability_item

Reference field: vulnerability

child : sn_vul_third_party_entry

what I tried is current.vulnerability.sys_id + '-'+ current.vulnerability.summary;

Hi @venori26 ,

Share the more context about your issue, the error you got is not to use the current.

or

use without current something like

vulnerability.name+"-"+vulnerability.summary

Hello Sir,

Thanks for your response.

I am attaching a screenshot to show the kind of dashboard I am developing. Its a Pivot Table type visualization. the data is related to vulnerabilites that are generated as a result of scanning cloud assets and its related metrics.

If you see the first column, it is a concatenation of plugin ID and Summary.

Parent table: sn_vul_vulnerable_items

Reference field: vulnerability

Child table: sn_vul_third_party_entry

plugin id and summary needs to be concantenated from child table. Something like, vulnerability.id+'-'+vulnerability.summary. I am trying to implement this in scripted breakdown but concatenation is not happening

But concatenation is not happening.
