Hi All,

Hi yes,

We can do that, but writing it in the SI would make it reuseable and easy for you if you need to reuse that rest call.

In your widget client script use angular http method to make a rest call.

function($http) {
    /* widget controller */
    var c = this;
    
	
$http.get('https://dev51484.service-now.com/api/now/table/incident/cc7d9d04db8d8410b6db8e4748961944').then(function(response){
  alert(JSON.stringify(response.data.result));
 });

	 
}

I am trying to do similar thing. How can I pass parameter in this method?

[AnirudhKumar]

Everything inside $http.get() is a string.

So, we can simply construct the required endpoint with an additional parameter.

var endpoint = 'https://dev51484.service-now.com/api/now/table/incident/' + Your value;

$http.get(endpoint);

In your REST message, declare like:

https://dev51484.service-now.com/api/now/table/incident/${parameter}
