How to remove the specific value from Array Dynamically

[HR Rajashekar]

Hi All,

I have requirement in scripting part where in

I created array and using "push" method to insert the value.

But I wanted to remove specific value from array and it will be selected dynamically.

Could any one help me out on this.

Hi Sanket,

Thank you for your response.

Still i am not finding the exact the solution.

My requirement is, I want to delete the selected value either first/last/own choice for only once.

Hi Rajashekar,

So you have a array and now you want to remove specific value from that array.

Is that array unique?

if not then if multiple occurrences of that value are present then all are to be removed?

script below for only 1 occurrence

var array = [2,5,9];

gs.info('Initial Array is: ' + array);

var valueToBeRemoved = 5;

var index = array.indexOf(valueToBeRemoved);

if (index > -1) {
array.splice(index, 1);
}

gs.info('Final Array is: ' + array);

script below for removing all occurrence of that value

var array = [2,5,9,5];

gs.info('Initial Array is: ' + array);

var valueToBeRemoved = 5;

var finalArray = removeItem(array,valueToBeRemoved);

gs.info('FinalArray is: ' + finalArray);

function removeItem(array, item) {
    for(i = 0; i<array.length; i++){
        if(array[i] == item) {
            array.splice(array.indexOf(item), 1);
            i--;
        }
    }
return array;

}

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

Thanks for help. I had similar requirement and it worked as expected.

getEscalationGroupfromServices: function(current) {
var service = current.getValue('u_service');
var assigngrp = current.getValue('u_assignment_group');
var serArrUniqueVal;
var serArrVal = [];
var grpVal = new GlideRecord("sys_user_group");
grpVal.addQuery('u_service', service); 
grpVal.addEncodedQuery("u_serviceISNOTEMPTY");
grpVal.query();
while (grpVal.next()) {
serArrVal.push(grpVal.sys_id.toString());

for (var i = 0; i < serArrVal.length; i++) {
if (serArrVal[i] == assigngrp) {
serArrVal.splice(serArrVal.indexOf(assigngrp), 1);
i--;
}
}
}
serArrUniqueVal = new global.ArrayUtil().unique(serArrVal); //get unique value
return 'sys_idIN' + serArrUniqueVal;
},
