.SYNOPSIS Retrieves records for the specified table .DESCRIPTION Retrieve records from any table with the option to filter, sort, and choose fields. Given you know the table name, you shouldn't need any other 'Get-' function. Paging is supported with -First, -Skip, and -IncludeTotalCount. .PARAMETER Table Name of the table to be queried, by either table name or class name. Use tab completion for list of known tables. You can also provide any table name ad hoc. .PARAMETER Property Limit the fields returned to this list .PARAMETER Filter Array or multidimensional array of fields and values to filter on. Each array should be of the format @(field, comparison operator, value) separated by a join, either 'and', 'or', or 'group'. For a complete list of comparison operators, see $script:ServiceNowOperator and use Name in your filter. See the examples. Also, see https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-platform-user-interface/page/use/common-ui-elements/reference/r_OpAvailableFiltersQueries.html for how to represent date values with javascript. .PARAMETER Sort Array or multidimensional array of fields to sort on. Each array should be of the format @(field, asc/desc). .PARAMETER DisplayValue Option to display values for reference fields. 'false' will only retrieve the reference 'true' will only retrieve the underlying value 'all' will retrieve both. This is helpful when trying to translate values for a query. .PARAMETER IncludeCustomVariable Include custom variables in the return object. Some records may have associated custom variables, some may not. For instance, an RITM may have custom variables, but the associated tasks may not. A property named 'CustomVariable' will be added to the return object. .PARAMETER Connection Azure Automation Connection object containing username, password, and URL for the ServiceNow instance .PARAMETER ServiceNowSession ServiceNow session created by New-ServiceNowSession. Will default to script-level variable $ServiceNowSession. .EXAMPLE Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table incident -Filter @('state', '-eq', '1'), 'or', @('short_description','-like', 'powershell') Get incident records where state equals New or short description contains the word powershell .EXAMPLE $filter = @('state', '-eq', '1'), '-and', @('short_description','-like', 'powershell'), '-group', @('state', '-eq', '2') PS > Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table incident -Filter $filter Get incident records where state equals New and short description contains the word powershell or state equals In Progress. The first 2 filters are combined and then or'd against the last. .EXAMPLE Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table incident -Filter @('state', '-eq', '1') -Sort @('opened_at', 'desc'), @('state') Get incident records where state equals New and first sort by the field opened_at descending and then sort by the field state ascending ] .EXAMPLE Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table 'change request' -Filter @('opened_at', '-ge', 'javascript:gs.daysAgoEnd(30)') Get change requests opened in the last 30 days. Use class name as opposed to table name. .EXAMPLE Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table 'change request' -First 100 -IncludeTotalCount Get all change requests, paging 100 at a time. .EXAMPLE Get-ServiceNowRecord -Table 'change request' -IncludeCustomVariable -First 5 Get the first 5 change requests and retrieve custom variable info .INPUTS None .OUTPUTS System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject .LINK https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/quebec-platform-user-interface/page/use/common-ui-elements/reference/r_OpAvailableFiltersQueries.html #> function Get-ServiceNowRecord { [OutputType([System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject])] [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = 'SessionFilter', SupportsPaging)] Param ( [parameter(Mandatory)] [Alias('sys_class_name')] [string] $Table, [Parameter()] [Alias('Fields', 'Properties')] [string[]] $Property, [parameter(ParameterSetName = 'AutomationFilter')] [parameter(ParameterSetName = 'SessionFilter')] [System.Collections.ArrayList] $Filter, [parameter(ParameterSetName = 'AutomationFilter')] [parameter(ParameterSetName = 'SessionFilter')] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [System.Collections.ArrayList] $Sort, [Parameter()] [ValidateSet('true', 'false', 'all')] [Alias('DisplayValues')] [string] $DisplayValue = 'true', [Parameter()] [switch] $IncludeCustomVariable, [Parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'AutomationQuery')] [parameter(Mandatory, ParameterSetName = 'AutomationFilter')] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [hashtable] $Connection, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = 'SessionQuery')] [Parameter(ParameterSetName = 'SessionFilter')] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [hashtable] $ServiceNowSession = $script:ServiceNowSession ) $invokeParams = $PSBoundParameters $invokeParams.Remove('IncludeCustomVariable') | Out-Null $addedSysIdProp = $false # we need the sys_id value in order to get custom var data # add it in if specific properties were requested and not part of the list if ( $IncludeCustomVariable.IsPresent ) { if ( $Property -and 'sys_id' -notin $Property ) { $invokeParams.Property += 'sys_id' $addedSysIdProp = $true } } $result = Invoke-ServiceNowRestMethod @invokeParams if ( $result ) { if ( $IncludeCustomVariable.IsPresent ) { # for each record, get the variable names and then get the variable values foreach ($record in $result) { $customVarParams = @{ Table = 'sc_item_option_mtom' Property = 'sc_item_option.item_option_new.name', 'sc_item_option.item_option_new.sys_name', 'sc_item_option.item_option_new.type' Filter = @('request_item', '-eq', $record.sys_id), 'and', @('sc_item_option.item_option_new.type', '-in', '1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,16,18,21,22') First = 1000 # hopefully there isn't more custom vars than this, but we need to overwrite the default of 10 } $customVars = Get-ServiceNowRecord @customVarParams if ( $customVars ) { $customValueParams = @{ Table = $Table Filter = @('sys_id', '-eq', $record.sys_id) Property = $customVars.'sc_item_option.item_option_new.name' | ForEach-Object { "variables.$_" } } $customValues = Get-ServiceNowRecord @customValueParams # custom vars will be a separate property on the return object $customVarsOut = $customVars | ForEach-Object { $varName = $_.'sc_item_option.item_option_new.name' [pscustomobject] @{ Name = 'variables.{0}' -f $varName DisplayName = $_.'sc_item_option.item_option_new.sys_name' Value = $customValues."variables.$varName" } } $record | Add-Member @{ 'CustomVariable' = $customVarsOut } } if ( $addedSysIdProp ) { $record | Select-Object -Property * -ExcludeProperty sys_id } else { $record } } } else { if ( -not $Property ) { $type = $script:ServiceNowTable | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq $Table -or $_.ClassName -eq $Table } | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Type if ($type) { $result | ForEach-Object { $_.PSObject.TypeNames.Insert(0, $type) } } } $result } } } |
