TypeScript Definitions for Service Now's APIs

servicenow-dts

TypeScript Definitions for Service Now's APIs. This repository is structured into client and server side d.ts files, as well as release specific (Helsinki, Geneva, Fuji) as needed.

Installation to your project

Recommend using typings npm project to install type definitions https://github.com/typings/typings

Scoped Apps

Using typings

• typings install servicenow=github:bryceg/servicenow-dts/server/scoped-VERSION/index.d.ts#v1.7 --global

Global and Scoped ES3 Apps

For global or scoped apps prior to Helsinki that target ES3, add the rhino d.ts reference instead of using native lib.dts

• typings install github:bryceg/servicenow-dts/server/rhino-es3.d.ts#1.0 --global

Update your tsconfig to not use lib.d.ts when using es3 rhino

{
	"compilerOptions": {
		"target": "es3",
		"noLib": true
	}
}

Recommend

In your project add a d.ts for your own service now types that you will be using, and extend the IGlideServerRecord with your type information using overload constants.

declare module sn {
    export module Server {
        export interface IGlideServerRecord {
            new (type: 'sys_user'): sn.Types.IUser;
        }
    }

    export module Types {
        export interface IUser extends sn.Server.IGlideServerRecord {
            sys_id: string;
            firstname: string;
            lastname: string;
            name: string;
            user_name: string;
            email: string;
            company: any;
            title: string;
            active: boolean;
            source: string;
        }
    }
  }

Then you can initialize your GlideRecord for sys_user and get property type information from IUser

var users = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
