HTML field toolbar editor options render differently in the native platform and might not show on Service Portal

KB Summary by Now Assist

Description

The HTML field toolbar editor options render differently in the native platform and may not show on the Service Portal. The HTML field toolbar (which is rendered via TinyMCE) is inherently different on Service Portal compared to the native platform.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to Service Catalog > Catalog Definition > Order Guides.

    For more information, see the product documentation topic Order guides.

  2. Select the New Hire order guide.

  3. Add a variable - sn_test of type HTML.

  4. Open the order guide by clicking the Try it button.

    The sn_test HTML field appears on the form.

  5. Check the same form in Service Portal.

    The sn_test HTML field is displayed.

  6. Modify the glide.ui.html.editor.v4.toolbar.line1 system property to add the "strikethrough" editing icon in the TinyMCE editing toolbar and save it.

    System property form TinyMCE v4.0.26 toolbar configuration options

  7. Check the New Hire order guide.

    Note that it shows the Strikethrough icon on the toolbar in the instance but not on Service Portal.
