How can I add to update set deleted record?

I want to store the “DELETE” flag, so the record on target instance will be deleted.

The code below is (of course) not working:

gr.deleteRecord();
var um = new GlideUpdateManager2();
um.saveRecord(gr); // does not work, because gr is deleted….

Any ideas please?

Hi Mark!
Any idea on how to create something similar in order to “Add to Team Development Local Changes” ?

I was thinking on adding it to sys_sync_changes manually, but I didn’t test it yet.

In reply to Trey Carroll. Thanks Trey, it's great to hear from you! I may be mistaken, but I don't see that anywhere in my code above. I'm actually testing for the value of those attributes in my code above (which I think is correct and does what your code does). Have you tried the code above to see if that works better?

We tried to use this (awesome) UI Action today ( which we typically use for capturing updates to groups and roles ) to capture updates to a scheduled job, however it failed to capture the update with the message “~ updates are already being captured for this table”. Problem was traced to a bug in the code:

current.getED().hasAttribute(‘update_synch_custom’)

(sysauto_report has the attribute but it is false.)

After changing the line to:

/true/i.test(current.getED().getAttribute(‘update_synch’))

we were able to capture the update.

Thanks, Mark, for the awesome contribution!

Hi Mark,

You are right. I’m not sure what I did do before, but I cannot reproduce it! Probably it was my mistake,

Sorry for that

Marcelo,

I’m not sure what’s going on in your system, but I’ve been using this solution for several years now and have never had that problem reported, nor experienced it myself. I just tested again to be sure. You might add this code to a demo environment to confirm. If you can reproduce the error in a system I can get to I’d be happy to look further.
