Hey there,
I've been working on a ServiceNow PowerShell module and recently discovered your project. It's a great tool.
I wasn't able to find an easy solution to get the values of a record's reference with your current implementation of
Get-ServiceNowRecord.ps1
.I've developed a solution that I believe addresses this issue smoothly by enabling dot-walking functionality. This enhancement would allow users to easily access a reference field's properties, like
$incident.caller_id.email
and even something like$incident.opened_by.manager.department.cost_center.account_number
.If you like it, feel free to merge my pull request. If you have questions or annotations, don't hesitate to ask.
