  • Create UI actions for your service so that agents can create universal tasks.

    Avant de commencer

    Role required: admin

    Administrators and users with the ui_action_admin role can define UI actions. The UI actions must be configured for both the ServiceNow AI Platform form and the Agent Workspace form.

    Procédure

    1. Navigate to All > System Definition > UI Actions.
    2. In the UI actions list, click New.
    3. Enter the name of the UI action.
      For example, enter the name as Assign Task.
    4. Select the service-specific table that Universal Task is being configured for.
      For example, select the Universal Request [universal_request] table for placing the Assign Task UI action on the Universal Task form view or workspace.
      Remarque :
      For any new UI action, ensure that you always select the appropriate service table.
    5. Facultatif : Clear the Show insert check box.
      If the Show insert check box remains checked, the UI action to create a task is displayed even when the main ticket is being created.
    6. Select the Form Button check box.
    7. In the Script field, enter the following script.
      var gr = new GlideRecord("sn_uni_task_universal_task");
      gr.initialize();
      gr.setValue("parent",current.sys_id);
      action.openGlideRecord(gr);
      action.setReturnURL(current);
      Important :
      This script belongs in the Script field (server-side) of the UI Action. Do not copy it into the Workspace Client Script field unless you want additional client-side behavior in Workspace.
    8. On the Workspace tab, select the Workspace Form Button check box.
    9. On the form, fill in the fields.

    10. Click Submit.
