What is Glide Form ? How it works ?

Glide form is normally use to customize the global applications and template applications which we have in the service now instance .With the use of Glide records we can control the applications form more like delete ,edit ,create ,change etc..

 The validations are done using Client Scripts. g_form is a global object in the Glide Form class. Client Scripts is the best place to excite the G_form objects. With the onload type of client script we can execute the form whenever we load the form. By the on submit type we can submit the form and post the values into the tables .With the on change type we can create a script that we can inter link one field with other field for auto changes .

The methods which we are discussing in the below can make custom changes to the form view of records.

·         G_form.setVisible = this method is use to hide and show the particular field in the form.

·         G_form .setDisplay= There is a little difference in between setVisible and setDisplay .We can maintain the hidden field space with using the setVisible method but with setDisplay we won’t have the space in between the hidden field .

·         G_form.addDecoration = with these we can highlight the particular field with start mark or with popup massage.

·         G_form. Flash = we can highlight the field with color and blinks or flash with particular no of times.

·         G_form.setLablelof =this method is required that user have to be” itill “role, so we can update the project name or whatever the text.
