Usage of GlideImportSetLoader & GlideImportSetTransformerWorker API's from scoped Application

[Arun Saravanan1]

Hi All,

We are working on a scoped application and as a part of use case would like to leverage below OOTB API's. 

• GlideImportSetLoader
• GlideImportSetTransformerWorker

I know it is not accessible from scoped application but can used by defining the logic in a global script include and calling it from my application. 

Since there is no documentation available for GlideImportSetLoader in the servicenow official site. As a developer are we allowed to this API's considering future support from servicenow ??

@Chuck Tomasi @Pradeep Sharma  Really need your guidance over here.

Thanks in advance.

It will solve the purpose of transform map execution via these API's. How about loading data into import set table.

Thanks Ankur for your response 🙂 

Any information on 'GlideImportSetLoader' API from scoped application ?

Also do we have any alternate  API or approach to load data into import set table automatically without using GlideImportSetLoader.

Regards,

Arun

try checking in release notes.

Hi buddies,

I bumped into the same issue as Arun did and I wanted to transform some data from a scoped app by using scripts.

I managed to get it working with the scripts documented here:

GlideImportSetTransformer - Scoped, Global | ServiceNow Developers

Basically I created created a new record in sys_import_set:

createAsynchronousImportSet: function(tableName) {
        var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_import_set');
        gr.initialize();
        gr.setValue('table_name', tableName);
        gr.setValue('mode', 'asynchronous');
        gr.setValue('state', 'loading');
        gr.insert();
        return gr;
    },

var importSet = this.helper.createAsynchronousImportSet('import_table_name');

Then I inserted all my data to the import table:

var importGr = new GlideRecord('import_table_name');
importGr.initialize();
importGr.setValue('field1', data1);
importGr.insert();

After that the following script did the job for me to transform the data:

var transformer = new GlideImportSetTransformer();
transformer.transformAllMaps(importSet);
