Need to populate Hint dynamically for a field in ServiceNow when we hover mouse over the field, any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks.

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar actually requirement is to show field color and hint both dynamically based on some other field value so needed this.

@kBahu 

it would require DOM manipulation which I won't recommend.

Please inform your customer about this as it's not a best practice

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

For everyone who wants to refer, below worked in scoped application

g_form.getControl('assigned_to').title = 'Test';

so looks like ''gel'' or ''document.getElementById()'' doesn't work in scoped app but ''g_form.getControl()'' works fine.

g_form.getControl will work but it is supported only in native

Also I don't think it can change the field hint, it can change the label or color etc

Yes, we require it in Native only, like below I am able to change hint dynamically.
