can't see javascript to debug in business rules

[hikerclimber]

Hi,

I don't see Javascript in debugger tool when dealing with business rules. Is this because Javascript runs server side? So I have to use the log to debug?

Thanks,

Aniket

Hi @hikerclimber,

some business rules are code-less, if the Advanced field is unchecked, it can set message and field values without script.

Perhaps this is the situation. Can you share what happened? Any screenshot or steps to replicate.

BR being server side is not the problem.

Oh k. I just have a gs.info in the advanced tab so that is probably why. I will try adding some meaning functions to see if I can debug.

So I added the following code but it won't show in debugger. I put SAP in the short description field. 

"(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {

    var sapIncs = new GlideRecord("incident");

    sapIncs.addActiveQuery();

    sapIncs.addQuery("short_description", "CONTAINS", "SAP");

    sapIncs.query();

    var myLog = "";

    while (sapIncs.next()) {

        myLog += sapIncs.number + ",";

    }

    gs.addInfoMessage("These records are active SAP Incidents:" + myLog);

})(current, previous);"

Hi @hikerclimber,

is your BR executed on before/after/async and insert/update?

Please share the BR definition, this is too abstract to help you
