Key ideas in ServiceNow: Building Better Workflows
- UI Policies are the standard low-code tool for field visibility and mandatory states
- Client Scripts allow for full JavaScript execution within the user's browser
- UI Policy Actions allow setting field attributes without writing any JavaScript
- Complex logic like regex validation or multi-field math requires the Script field
- Using UI Policies ensures logic is evaluated both on load and when field values change
- UI Policies are limited to basic 'True/False' logic for field attributes
- UI Policies and Actions
- Client Script vs UI Policy
- GlideAjax requires a client-side call and a server-side Script Include
- The g_form object is the primary interface for client-side form manipulation
- The getXML method prevents the browser from locking up while waiting for data
- Methods like showFieldMsg provide better UX than generic alert boxes
- Callback functions handle the server's response asynchronously
- g_form works consistently across the Standard UI and Service Portal
- The sequence of an asynchronous GlideAjax call
- Using the g_form API to manipulate form elements
You've tried the other tabs
Thirty open tabs. Four facts you actually kept.
You watched. You nodded. By Sunday it was gone.
One answer, then back to scrolling.
Eight weeks. You meant to finish. You didn't.
Tomo gives ServiceNow: Building Better Workflows the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
Here's what playing it feels like
