IFS assyst

Good afternoon,Does anyone, please, have a more up-to-date roadmap for IFS assyst and ITOM than the one available at the following link:https://community.ifs.com/product-strategy-and-roadmap-124/master-article-what-is-the-update-release-schedule-and-release-details-9818?tid=9818&fid=124#IFS+assyst%C2%A0I searched the community but could not find any.

 I’m rather new to the use of assystREST API, and I do apologize if this is blindingly obvious. I’ve tried using the Assyst wiki assystREST_More_Examples article as a guide, but I’ve come up short. Is it possible to get all attachments from an event using a single rest query?When using the query below the “Event attachments” are returned, however none of the “Action Attachments” are part of this response. GET http://:/assystREST/v2/events/[eventId]/attachments  I have attempted using the actions endpoint, however that does not return any of the “Event Attachments”, and this returns all the actions, not just the attachments. GET http://:/assystREST/v2/actions?eventId=[eventId]&fields=attachments  I’ve so far thus been unable to get a single request response, and i’m unsure as how to structure more advanced queries. In the same line of inquiry, I’ve been trying to lookup get all open events that are within a certain siteArea. This is trivial using the assyst GUI, however using REST I

Hello.We have installed assyst 11.8.2 in a non-production environment for testing, and are having an issue with the assystNET page not loading. We have two sets of web servers which authenticate differently, and all applications (assystnet, assystnetmob) on both sectors is having the issue. assystWeb login works fine. When a client attempts to access assystNET, the following error occurs in the server.log: 2024-08-21 09:11:17,455 ERROR [com.axiossystems.assyst.dao.security.CSGFilter] (default task-2) CheckDtos : unable to set property => csg Here is a screenshot of the error: We have tried numerous different authentication methods (LDAP, Azure SAML), and the same issue occurs.I have opened an incident with assyst support, but they have yet to be able to prvovide any advise. Has anyone else seen this with 11.8.2? Thanks, Duncan 

When a decision task is taken and Denied this is successfully triggering an email to the affected user based on the Denied sub process and associated Task.  Approved decisions are not triggering an email, Approvals don’t generate a sub process they just simple move the process onto the next task. Each task is different depending on the process so I cannot effectively hang an approval email from those. Is there some way to trigger an email based on the ‘Answer’ to a decision?

I am having issues to create “NORMALTASK” based on action and link with parent ticket ?  Although IFS provided the option to create task but it is time consuming as user need to copy all information (Affected User, Task type, summary, description etc ) so I am trying to build a custom Action that will call a custom action script to create a normal task and attached with the parent ticket copying all parent tickets information. In 11.4 version we do have a feature to create task but when I use my legacy script to create normal task passing event_type_enum="NORMALTASK" it gives me error “ERROR 808 Error encountered when creating new event: Exception: ComplexValidationException: A complex validation error has been detected by the application. Rule broken: mandatorySeedEvent, Related field: taskSeedEvent, Message: ??server.validation.errors.mandatorySeedEvent??. Status code: 400”. Legacy scripts works fine in creating incident and service request.I tried setting the  two variable taskLinkR

Hi All,I’m looking for ideas for including Approver details in the global user's Event Monitor on the Self-Service Portal (under Progress > My Open Issues and Requests).The issue I have is the Column Profile for the Event Monitor is looking at details on the Request ticket and not the underlying Tasks. If I include Approver as an additional column on the global user’s Column Profile, it appears blank as the Approver is listed on the Task and not the Request. This means end-users are unable to identify who to contact for a pending approval and need to contact our Service Desk to provide the information.Any advice on if or how other customers are managing similar requirements would be much appreciated.Best regards,David.

I trying to extract the value of a custom field with property type “l: system lookup”.The lookup_VAL_ID does not seem to match anything in the jptsys_web_lkup_dataAlso what is weird is we are on 11.6.3 and table jptsys_web_cust_prop is not supposed to be removed  11.5 but it is there and it is populated with something!!!here is the SQL that I use to get the “Lookup_val_ID”:(select max(convert(varchar,jc.LOOKUP_VAL_ID))     from  jptsys_web_cust_prop_cont (NOLOCK) jc              left join jptsys_web_cust_prop (NOLOCK) j  on jc.jptsys_web_cust_prop_id=j.jptsys_web_cust_prop_id            left join jptsys_web_lkup_data (nolock) drop_dwn_val on drop_dwn_val.jptsys_web_lkup_data_id = jc.LOOKUP_VAL_ID           left join jptsys_web_lkup (NOLOCK) lkup on drop_dwn_val.jptsys_web_lkup_id = lkup.jptsys_web_lkup_id           where i.incident_id=jc.entity_id            and j.jptsys_web_cust_prop_sc='REGION'      ) AS "Region / Région",

Hello,I’m working on Styling self-service portal, I have some questions below and would appreciate a solution.Need to change the "Favorites" sub-title to "My Favourites" just like how it is displayed in the menu, refer image-1 attached.

Hi,I'm working on an Action Template and require the custom field values in a form entered by the user to automatically populate into the template.As of now, we are only capable of pulling Standard field values of a form, but my question is for Custom field in a form. Is it possible to get them auto-populate by writing expressions? If so, then please let us know. Also is it possible to grab the details of the user from his/her contact-user profile using an expression in the template? Below is a Service Offering Form and we need some of its CUSTOM fields to automatically populate in our Action Template.A form with Custon fields highlighted.Thank you in advance.

I am trying to change the data source of a BIRT report (e.g. rptdesign file used by assyst Report Wizard) from our on premise database to the cloud Saas Database, I was using Database URL “jdbc:sqlserver://W-99999-D5E:1523;databaseName=PDRPSQGCG;”and the connection was working fine.But now I was told to use “jdbc:sqlserver://cac-99301-axios.secondary.database.windows.net:1433;database=99301;” as an example but it fails the connection. I tried various combinations but still no success.IFS Support was not able to help other than we were able to test the connection tot he database using SSMS so all indication points to the BIST data source to be incorrectly specified.Does anyone have the proper info to setup the the connection?

I have a Service Request for Personnel Changes.  there is a drop down question which asks them if they are ADDING, REMOVING, or CHANGING.  the workflow and tasks are completely different based on this  ONE question.  There isn’t an Approval I just need to follow 3 paths and have multiple parallel tasks based on the path.  Removal of a spouse has multiple places that need to be updated and it has to go to different service departments concurrently to do the updates.  If there is a name change again totally different task and different service departments.  How to I make this happen?  Any direction or hints would be greatly appreciated!here’s a sample picture for those that are visual:Sample of how i want the process to flow. 

We have a Contact User Lookup field that uses Lookup Expression as below:select usr.id from usr as usr where usr.csg.shortCode ='xxxxxxxxxx' The expression returns only Active Users. We need all Active and Inactive Users.

We have been creating some standard reports in Assyst Web using the report wizard as well as some dashboard reports too.We would like to make those reports available to groups of users. In some cases, those users may only be contact users and in other cases they may also be assyst users as well.I’ve looked through the WIKI and have verified our privilege groups for both end users and support staff have all the required entity privileges. Using the Assyst web report wizard I was able to create, share and publish a report. In Assyst Web I can now see that under my Subscriptions. However, I’m not able to enable the Reporting Menu item on our end user portal to make the report available there. (1). Has anyone setup the Net End User Portal to enable the reporting menu icon/item and if so what controls that?(2). Has anyone figured out how to get published & scheduled reports to email users once run?(3). When you publish your report to contact users, can I assume they see all the subscrib

Hello. Does anyone have any experience with customizing the Self-Service Mobile App (formerly ACE) through InTune? We are looking to deploy the app to our client base, but need to customize the app icon and name (“IFS assyst” doesn’t mean anything to our clients).IFS have been able to tell me the key value for customizing the server URL in the deployment, but when I asked about the icon and name I have not gotten a reply.Thanks,Duncan

Hello! We’re using assyst in our Problem Management process and the process owner asked us to make assyst notify him whenever new problems are logged, besides the affected user, which typically is someone else in the IT staff.Initially I had the idea of customizing the Lua script which is invoked for all assign actions and add that custom logic there. However, that felt very hacky-ish and not easily maintainable.After that, I tried to customize the Problem form and add one aditional user by default (the aforementioned process owner), but this does not seem to be possible with customizer. Any recommendations besides modifying the Lua script?

I’ve created a user alias and need to restrict some of the service catalogues.  I created a customized homepage in assystNET to show only the service offering they will need.  (this is all because of privacy issues) I’d like to remove the view of the services within the menu but if I can’t remove just one option, the whole menu is fine.  It should be based on the user alias I created.  Is there a way to do that?  If so, how?

Hi Community. I’m trying to chase a legacy UI issue that I have open and am hoping you might be able to signpost me.We have an element displaying the US style date format (MM/dd/yy) within the details pane of the event monitor page (pictured below).

Hi all.We have just upgraded our test environment ETM to 1.7 which introduces the HTTP(S) to the mix and are putting it through its paces to see what we could use it for.One use case we are looking at is possibly replacing a script we have running on our integration VM. We use future actions to trigger a stop clock action, with assyst user setting the date to ‘come off hold’ and leaving the success checkbox as false. The script (SQL included below) will query the DB and find tickets due to come off hold.select top 5 act_reg_id ACT_REG_ID , act_type.act_type_n "HOLD_ACTION" , date_actioned "ACT_DATE" , act_reg.incident_id "INCIDENT_ID" , incident.incident_ref "REMIND_INC_REF" ,incident.type_enum from act_reg inner join incident on incident.incident_id = act_reg.incident_id inner join inc_data on incident.incident_id = inc_data.incident_id inner join act_type on act_reg.act_type_id = act_type.act_type_id left join assyst_usr on incident.ass_usr_id = assyst_usr.assyst_usr_id where act_s

Hi,I have created a Technical Issue in OSCA and I wanted to add a person to the watch list/ maybe the person can keep track of the process.Is there any way we could add a person to the watch list ?

One of our service have been asking about case management systems that can (at a designated point in the process) send a service user or a third party a PDF document. Such as a legal or contact doc.  Has anyone ever tried to get assyst to populate a PDF template? Is is even possible?

I have logged an idea for this, but am wondering whether anyone may have a better idea of achieving this?We have a custom logging form that has a custom item lookup, and what I would like to be able to do is provide the user with a short summary of what that item is/does. It doesn’t look like the we are able to amend the column profile that appears in the item lookup so it includes a remarks field from the CMDB, so the only way currently to achieve this is to create a caption field and manually enter the text - but for 100’s of items, this is not feasible. Ideally, what I would like to happen is when an item is selected, the next custom is a caption that is configured dynamically pull through the information stored in the remarks field of that item in the CMDB - only needing 1 caption field instead of 100’s. This currently isn’t possible, and logged an idea for this 5 months ago, still with no solution.Is anyone able to advise if there is a better way to achieve this? Any help is appre

Good day,We’ve been looking to import data into custom fields on Items. The wiki is very, very detailed for the Data Mapper, but there does not appear to be an example of how to update the value of a shared field (let alone, in our case, a single lookup field).Below is what we had come up with. assystETM recognizes our custom Item field, RESOLUTION-PROGRESS, but we do not know how to tell it to import the data for that field, as there are no fields to specify this. Clearly, we are missing something.  Can anyone give us a hint or direct us to an example for updating custom item fields? Really appreciate it,...Donovan
