In reply to Michael E.. Hi Michael, It appears that ServiceNow provides a new g_notification object, GlideNotificationV3. According to the documentation it only works with ListV3.

Is there a way to make these message pop-up and display for all users that are currently logged into SN?

I hope someone comes up with an easier way to do this. It seems like a lot of code for such a simple feature. Anyone?

Joining Nadya and Russell on that – is it possible to show such a notification to all connected users, and not only to the one who made the changes?

In reply to Nick. It works fine in a Script Include for me (on Fuji). You should reload the entire screen (not just the form) after adding the UI Script.

In reply to Nadya. I have to add my voice to that one, it's not clear how to control who will get the notification... other than that this is really useful.

Hi!

Nice article.
I have tried this, but the notification only showed up for the Updater. I need to make the notification shown for the other agents (or a specific role).
Did I miss something?

Does someone try to use above UI Script and Business Rule? I created exactly the same items but had no luck with pop-up message displaying

In reply to Nick.

Ok so for anyone that needs an idea for this here is what I did-

Global UI Script that runs on interval calling a script include Ajax, which in turn queries the v_user_session table, field ‘last_transaction’. Compare that to the current time, and then against whatever your system timeout property is. Ours is the default 30 minutes. If the difference is almost thirty minutes return the username from the user session table, and then invoke the n= new UINotification(answer + ‘ your session is about to expire, save your work ! ‘ ) from the UI Script. Only way I could figure to “schedule” this. Couldn’t get this to work in script action, script include , scheduled job. Just on the client (obviously) and business rules. If anyone knows why this only works in BRs that would be great to know!
