About

This handler has the ability to have form caching disabled. To disable form caching set disable_caching to "Yes". Disabling caching may negatively impact performance, but it is also necessary when using a single handler to interact with multiple Remedy environments.

This handler updates the request id specified in the Request ID parameter for the form specified in the Remedy Form parameter with data provided in the Field Values parameter. Provide a JSON object as the Field Values input to update the appropriate fields. Example: {"Field A":"Value A","Field B":"Value B"}
