Module for the JsonV2 API in ServiceNow

Docs for the API available from the ServiceNow Website.

Current Support

• Encoded Queries
• Sys Id Queries

Format of Data

Data returned as an object as specified in the docs

Usage

For more information on the various parameters and what they do, go to the docs here.

Query design

There are two constructors for creating a query. You can pass an object containing the parameters or pass each parameter individually. The below two constructors will return the same result.

var SNQuery = require('sn-jsonv2').SNQuery;
var GetActions = require('sn-jsonv2').GetActions;

var options = {
  table:'sys_user',
  sysparm_action:GetActions.getRecords,
  sysparm_view:null,
  sysparm_query:'active=true',
  sysparm_sys_id:null,
  sysparm_record_count:10,
  displayvalue:false,
  displayvariables:false
};
var query = new SNQuery(options);

var query2 = new SNQuery('sys_user', GetActions.getRecords, null, 'active=true', null, 10, false, false);

Running a Query

To run a query you you need to have an SNJsonV2 object with instance information, then pass the query (options, or a query object as specified above) to its run function. It will return a promise of results.

var SNJsonV2 = require('sn-jsonv2').SNJsonV2;
var GetActions = require('sn-jsonv2').GetActions;

var instance = new SNJsonV2('instanceName', 'username', 'password');

var options = {
  table:'sys_user',
  sysparm_action:GetActions.getRecords,
  sysparm_view:null,
  sysparm_query:'active=true',
  sysparm_sys_id:null,
  sysparm_record_count:10,
  displayvalue:false,
  displayvariables:false
};

var results = instance.run(options);

Posting

This API supports sending data to the instance, as described here. To post to the server, add what you want to send to the 'data' variable on the query options object. Each key on the object should be a column name on the provided table.

var PostActions = require('sn-jsonv2').PostActions;

var options = {
  table:'sys_user',
  sys_parm_action:PostActions.insert,
  data:{
    user_name:'ben.knight',
    first_name:'Ben',
    last_name:'Knight',
    ...
  }
}
