Workspace UI Actions (ES5)

Create Workspace Action

// Create workspace-specific UI action (ES5 ONLY!)
var action = new GlideRecord("sys_aw_action")

action.setValue("name", "Quick Resolve")
action.setValue("label", "Quick Resolve")
action.setValue("workspace", workspaceSysId)
action.setValue("table", "incident")

// Action type
action.setValue("action_type", "form") // form, list, both
action.setValue("order", 100)

// Condition
action.setValue("condition", "current.active == true && current.state != 6")

// Client action (opens modal)
action.setValue(
  "client_script",
  "function onClick() {\n" +
    "    spModal.open({\n" +
    '        title: "Quick Resolve",\n' +
    '        widget: "quick-resolve-modal",\n' +
    "        widgetInput: { table: g_form.getTableName(), sys_id: g_form.getUniqueValue() }\n" +
    "    }).then(function(result) {\n" +
    "        if (result) {\n" +
    '            g_form.setValue("state", 6);\n' +
    '            g_form.setValue("resolution_code", result.code);\n' +
    '            g_form.setValue("close_notes", result.notes);\n' +

Example Workflow

// 1. Find workspaces
await snow_query_table({
  table: "sys_aw_workspace",
  query: "active=true",
  fields: "name,title,primary_table,url",
})

// 2. Get list configurations
await snow_query_table({
  table: "sys_aw_list",
  query: "workspace.name=IT Service Desk Workspace",
  fields: "name,table,filter,columns",
})

// 3. Test similar incident finder
await snow_execute_script_with_output({
  script: `
        var finder = new SimilarIncidentFinder();
        var similar = finder.findSimilar('incident_sys_id');
        gs.info('Found: ' + similar.length);
    `,
})

Best Practices

1. Role-Based - Design for specific roles
2. Efficient Lists - Optimized filters and columns
3. Context Panel - Relevant information accessible
4. Agent Assist - Enable knowledge/similar records
5. Actions - Streamline common tasks
6. Performance - Lazy load components
7. Mobile Ready - Test responsive layouts
8. ES5 Only - No modern JavaScript syntax
