[Python] Pysnow module (Python for Servicenow) - how to create requested items?

I recently start using pysnow-module for automating my work at Servicedesk. My problem is that i don't know how to create Requested Items.

I have managed to create new incidents and new requests, also update them. I have also succeeded in modifying Requested Items, but i'm stuck at not knowing how to turn Requests into Requested Items.

I've tried following pieces of code, all starting with this

s = pysnow.Client(instance='Secret domain', user='Secret-user', password='Secret')


Then continuing with following tries:

def new_ritm():
result = s.insert(table='sc_req_item', payload={'field1': 'value1',
'field2': 'value2'})
print(result['number'])
luo_uusi_ritm()

File "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 51, in <module>luo_uusi_ritm()
File"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 47, in new_ritmresult = s.insert(table='sc_req_item', payload={'field1': 'value1', 'field2': 'value2'})
File "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 90, in insert return r.insert(payload)
File "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 108, in insert return self._get_content(response)
File "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 290, in _get_contentreturn content_json['result']
KeyError: 'result'


Also tried modifying REQ, insert new values:

result = s.insert(table='sc_req_item', payload={'sc_req_item.request':
'REQ0994143'})


But get an error:

"File "xxxxxxxxxxxxx, line 290, in _get_content
return content_json['result']
KeyError: 'result'


EDIT: Suggestion 1: I couldn't add the

"request_params={'sysparm_display_value': 'true'})" , because it gives me an "Unexpected argument" error
​

I entered the following code:

s = pysnow.Client(instance=XXXX,user=XXXXX,password=XXXXXX)


try:
result = s.insert(table='sc_req_item', payload={'field1': 'value1',
'field2': 'value2'})
except pysnow.UnexpectedResponse as e:
print("%s, details: %s" % (e.error_summary, e.error_details))


Which gives me an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "XXXXXXXXXXXX", line 63, in stack_experiment()

File "XXXXXXXXX", line 59, in stack_experiment result = s.insert(table='sc_req_item', payload={'field1': 'value1','field2': 'value2'})

File "XXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 90, in insert return r.insert(payload)

File "XXXXXXXXXXXXX", line 108, in insert return self._get_content(response)

File "XXXXXXXXXXX", line 290, in _get_content return content_json['result']

KeyError: 'result'
​

Suggestion 2:

Maybe you are confused using Client.insert instead of Request.insert
​

I am confused about it. Should i change the starting code "s = pysnow.Client(etc."?

I went to read the docs one more time and i've understood for new requests, i should use pysnow.Request, so i tried once more with:

r = pysnow.Request(instance='Secret domain', user='Secret-user',
password='Secret', method='POST', table='sc_req_item')

try:

result = r.insert(payload={'field1': 'value1', 'field2': 'value2'})

except pysnow.UnexpectedResponse as e:

print("%s, details: %s" % (e.error_summary, e.error_details))


And i got an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "xxxx", line
7, in <module>
r = pysnow.Request(instance='xxxx', user='xxxx',
password='xxxxx', method='POST', table='sc_req_item')
File "xxxxx", line 29, in __init__
self.default_payload = kwargs.pop('default_payload')
KeyError: 'default_payload'
