v_table – Scoped, Global

The v_table API provides methods to add rows to a remote table through a scriptable object.

This API requires the Remote Tables plugin (com.glide.script.vtable) to be activated. For additional information, see Retrieving external data using remote tables and scripts.

Use the v_query scriptable object to query remote tables.

v_table - addRow(Object row)

Adds rows to the remote table.

表 : 1. Parameters

row.<field value>	String	Represents the value of the selected field. Although no fields are mandatory, provide the sys_id at a minimum. Example listing only sys_id field and value: { "sys_id": "<uniqueID>" }

表 : 2. Returns

The following example shows how to use the RESTMessageV2 API to create and execute the REST call to an external bank application. The script shows how to use the addRow() method to store return results in a remote table.

(function executeQuery (v_table, v_query) {
  // Parameters needed in the request body of the REST endpoint
  var requestBody = {
    'financial_account':v_query.getParameter('financial_account')
  };

  // Instantiate the RESTMessageV2 object
  var request = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2();
  // Set the HTTP method as "GET"
  request.setHttpMethod('get');
  // URL of the endpoint on the bank application
  request.setEndpoint('https://<yourbankapphost>/api/getTransactionDetails');
  // Request body as a string
  request.setRequestBody(JSON.stringify(requestBody));
  // Call the REST endpoint
  var response = request.execute();
  // Get the response body
  var responseBody = response.getBody();
  // Parse the response body into an object
  var responseObj = JSON.parse(responseBody);

  // Store the response body into a virtual table
  v_table.addRow({
    sys_id: gs.generateGUID(),
    amount: responseObj.amount,
    description: responseObj.description,
    posting_date: responseObj.posting_date,
    transaction_date: responseObj.transaction_date
  });

}) (v_table, v_query);
