Attachment
When submitting a catalog item request, this variable lets you upload an attachment for a question of the item.
After you upload the attachment, you can also download, update, and delete it. Even when fulfilling the request, you can download, update, and delete the attachment in a requested item or catalog task. You can specify restrictions for
file size and extensions using the max_file_size and allowed_extensions variable attributes. For information on these variable attributes, see Service Catalog variable attributes.
중요사항:
- You should specify only an integer value for the following:
- The max_file_size variable attribute
- The glide.sc.variable.attachment.default_max_size system property (catalog-level). The default value is 20.
- If the max_file_size variable attribute is not specified, the glide.sc.variable.attachment.default_max_size system property value is considered as the upper limit for the attachment file size.
- Irrespective of the file size allowed in the variable, the attachment file size cannot exceed the size specified in com.glide.attachment.max_size system property, which is applicable for attachments across ServiceNow AI Platform.
- The g_form.setValue() API is supported in catalog client scripts.
주:
When you edit an attachment, the existing attachment is removed and a new attachment is uploaded.
When you upload an attachment to this variable, an entry is created in the Attachment [sys_attachment] table. The variable is not updated until you submit the item request, add it to the cart, or save the record while editing it (in fulfiller flows). If you delete or update the attachment before submitting the corresponding catalog item, the entry in the Attachment [sys_attachment] table is cleared.
The attachment uploaded for this variable is copied in the following scenarios:
- In an order guide, when the variable is cascaded to a catalog item in the rule base중요사항:The individual variable attributes are not honored for the catalog items in the rule base. For example, let us consider that a variable in the Describe Needs section allows a .pdf attachment and the variable of a catalog item in the rule base allows a .txt attachment. When you upload an attachment of .pdf type for a variable in the Describe Needs section, it is initially cascaded to the variable in the catalog item as well and the variable attributes specified in the catalog item are not honored. However, if you delete this initially cascaded attachment from an individual item and try to upload a new attachment, then the individual variable attributes of the catalog item are honored.
- In a record producer, when the variable is mapped to a task table field. This variable can be mapped only to the File Attachment field type of a task table.
중요사항:
After an attachment is copied, the changes to the individual attachments are independent. For example, any change to an attachment in the order guide does not impact the same attachment cascaded to the catalog item in
the rule base.
경고:
Since the attachments are copied, a larger size can lead to performance issues.
If the system-wide anti-virus check is enabled, the anti-virus check is performed on the attachment when you:
