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

Thanks.

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.

I won't recommend using DOM manipulation.

But if your requirement is to achieve it then ensure your onLoad client script has Isolate Script = False to allow DOM to run

HI @kBahu

Please don't try any DOM manipulation, as it is not recommended, For dynamic change for hints implementation, you have to check whether it is required or skip that, try to think in terms of best practice as well.
