Updating integerMap values

[michaeldcanady]

I looked through the documentation, I couldn't find an example of how to update the integerMap values. I am trying to change the selection for a dropdown menu. below is my last (unsuccessful) attempt. Thanks in advance!

async def updateHardware(serviceNow, __sysid__, field, value):
    async with HardwareModel(serviceNow, table_name="alm_hardware") as Hardware:
        response = await Hardware.update(
            HardwareModel.sys_id == __sysid__,dict(field =(key=1, value="In use")))

You want to change the selected value of a choice field in an alm_hardware object, correct?

The IntegerMap field is mainly used when working with response data; it validates the field's JSON object and deserializes into a named tuple, holding its value and display_value attributes as key (integer) and value (string) respectively. Other than that, it behaves like a regular fields.Integer, including when serializing the payload for an update.

Here is an example of an IntegerMap field getting updated: https://github.com/rbw/aiosnow/blob/master/examples/table/update/by_id.py

i.e. it's just like updating a regular fields.Integer field.

In your case, it'd be something like:

update(<sys_id or Condition>, dict(name_of_choice_field_to_update=1))

async def updateHardware(serviceNow, __sysid__, field, value):
    async with HardwareModel(serviceNow, table_name="alm_hardware") as Hardware:
        response = await Hardware.update(__sysid__, dict(field = value))

    print("Updated status: {}".format(response["install_status"]))

updated code, it still returns: Updated status: <IntegerMapping [key=6, value=In stock]> instead of key = 1

Thank you for the assistance!

nvm, subsequently tests began working. Thank you!
