UI List Action to get selected records

mballinger · ‎02-10-2021

Hello,

I am struggling to find how to capture selected records in a List UI Action on the incident table. What I need to be able to do is get all the selected incident numbers (this needs to work for select all as well).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I updated the script, there were some syntax issues

function showConfirmDialog() {
	var entries = g_list.getChecked();

	if (!entries || entries.length == 0)
		return;

	var ga = new GlideAjax('GetIncidentNumber');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getIncident');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_entry_ids', entries);
	ga.getXML(getRequiredInc);

	function getRequiredInc(response) {
		var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
		alert("Some alert to test if it works: " + answer);

	}
}

var GetIncidentNumber = Class.create();
GetIncidentNumber.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
	getIncident: function() {
		var array = [];
		var entries = this.getParameter('sysparm_entry_ids');
		var sysIds = entries.split(",");
		var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');
		gr.addQuery('sys_id','IN',entries);
		gr.query();
		while (gr.next()) {
			array.push(gr.getValue("number"));

		}

		//var createList = array.join(',');

		return array.toString();
	},

	type: 'GetIncidentNumber'
});

You can use Glideajax to update.

Thanks for providing this example. In the script include, how can I query on the sys_ids and return the number? I am trying to capture an array of Incident #'s of the selected checkboxes

You can pass the g_list.Checked() in the script include

Yes I see that in the script include, but how do I print out the Incident number of each sys_id? I've already passed g_list.Checked(), now am unsure of how to get the different details from the sys_id

those things you have to do in script include.

someText = this.getParameter('sysparm_sdText').split('\n') //array of sys_ids
