FAQPage Schema

What are the best practices for using GlideRecord in ServiceNow scripts?▼

GlideRecord best practices require using the getValue and setValue methods instead of direct property access to ensure secure ServiceNow script operations. This approach enforces coding standards and prevents improper API usage within scoped applications.

How do I write secure ServiceNow Service Portal widget client scripts?▼

Secure ServiceNow Service Portal widget client scripts require applying Angular dependency injection and proper patterns to avoid digest issues. Following these coding standards prevents unexpected behavior and ensures safe client-side execution.

Does sn-scriptsync enforce coding standards for scoped applications?▼

Yes, coding standards are enforced for scoped applications within the sn-scriptsync workflow by restricting improper API usage and applying security governance across code assets. This ensures scoped app restrictions and safe operations are met.

How do I name GlideRecord and GlideAggregate variables in ServiceNow?▼

GlideRecord and GlideAggregate variables in ServiceNow scripts should use semantic prefixes to maintain clarity and governance across code assets. This naming convention is part of the enforced coding standards for safe script content.

What are the limitations of mixing client and server APIs in ServiceNow scripts?▼

Mixing client and server APIs in ServiceNow scripts is restricted by coding standards to prevent improper API usage and security vulnerabilities. You must follow scoped app boundaries and specific server versus client guidelines to avoid invalid operations.
