Symptoms

A custom UI Action is not working as expected. When the UI Action is script is executed there is following error seen in the browser console:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'apply' of undefined

Release

All

This occurs when you have the following statement in your code:


var gr = GlideRecord("<tablename>");

eg. var gr = GlideRecord("sys_user");

This is a malformed statement.

It is necessary to utilize the "new" operator to create an instance of the GlideRecord before it can be used successfully from custom scripts.

Modify the statement to utilize the new operator:

var gr = new GlideRecord("<tablename>");

eg. var gr = new GlideRecord("sys_user");
