How to send array data from Script Include to Client script

[abhaysingh98]

Hi Guys,

I have to send array data from Script Include to Client script as I have to sort this array data to get only those fields that are visible on form not all the fields but issue is that when I send it then it convert to object I tried every possible way to convert it again to array but it remains as object.

Script Include -

var getFieldDetails = Class.create();

getFieldDetails.prototype = Object.extendsObject(global.AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

    getFields: function() {

        //var tableName = this.getParameter('sysparm_tableName');

        var recordSysId = this.getParameter('sysparm_recordSysId');

        var fields = [];

var viewGR = new GlideRecord('sys_ui_element');

viewGR.addEncodedQuery('sys_ui_section=ae375ebd874359109508c8480cbb355c'); //

viewGR.query();

while (viewGR.next()) {

    var field_name = viewGR.getValue('element');

    var type = viewGR.getValue('type');

    if (type == ".end_split" || type == ".split" || type == "formatter" || field_name == "major_incident") //

        continue;

    fields.push(field_name);

}

var gr = new GlideRecord('x_roho_rwd_activity');

gr.addQuery('sys_id', recordSysId);

gr.query();

while (gr.next()) {

    rec_arr = [];

    for (x = 0; x < fields.length; x++) {

        if (gr.getValue(fields[x]) == null) {

            rec_arr.push(fields[x]);

        }

    }

}

return JSON.stringify(rec_arr);

},

    type: 'getFieldDetails'

});

Thanks in advance.

HI @abhaysingh98 ,

Can you try with using JSON.parse() function in the client script to convert into an Array ?

If the above information helps you, Kindly mark it as Helpful or Accept the solution.

Hi @Najmuddin Mohd ,

I tried using JSON.parse() function in the client script to convert into an Array to convert it but still it is not working I want to get all the elements of that array and then filter those elements or fields which are visible on the form not all fields .

Hi @abhaysingh98 ,
After you parse, did you try something like this.
If 'answer' was an Object which has a Key value pair with key 'Group Name' and value as the Group.
g_form.setValue('assignment_group',answer['Group Name']);

If this is just a simple array, then don't JSON.stringify it in the Script Include return:

return rec_arr.join(',');

If it's not a simple array, what does it look like if you log rec_arr.join(',') before the return?  I get what the fields array would look like, but not the custom table one.
