autoSysFields onBefore

To prevent the automatic setting of the system fields (like sys_created_on, sys_updated_by, etc), the setting as a Field Map is not enough. An onBefore script is needed with the following line:

target.autoSysFields(false);

---

Ignore onBefore

if(action == "update") {
    ignore = true;
}

---

Ignore onAfter

When a line is ignore, transform script onAfter is always executed. To skip the execution of the transform script use the following code :

if(source.getValue("sys_import_state") === 'ignored')
    return;

Service Now Documentation Import Set onAfter script runs for ignored rows during transformation

Action for Inserted or Updated records

A specific action can be done for only inserted or updated records. For that we have to use the following code :

if(source.getValue("sys_import_state") === 'inserted') {
    // do an action on inserted records
}
else if(source.getValue("sys_import_state") === 'updated') {
    // do an action on updated records
}
