Skip approval check if user is in a certain group (Service Catalog)

[Mort]

Hello, In the catalog workflow I am trying to add a "check" (if statement) in our hardware and software workflow in which users in a certain group are pre-approved and skip the approval piece in the workflow. Here is what I have so far:

(I am not a developer so if this code is incorrect please let me know)

answer = preapprovalcheck();

function preapprovalcheck(){

var userCheck;

if(userCheck.isMemberOf('SN-ApprovedEAs')){

  answer = true;

  } else {

  answer = false;

  }

}

Here is the workflow:

Did you try by adding some logs? Also confirm the group name app_SN_Role-VIP is correct.

answer=preapprovalcheck();

function preapprovalcheck(){

gs.log('++++++++++++++++++current.requested_for is '+current.requested_for);

var grMem = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

grMem.addQuery('user', current.requested_for);

grMem.addQuery('group.name', 'app_SN_Role-VIP');

grMem.query();

if(grMem.next()){

  return 'yes';

gs.log('++++++++++++++++In Yes++++++++++++++++++++');

  } else {

gs.log('++++++++++++++++In No++++++++++++++++++++');

  return 'no';

  }

Please find the workflow above

you need to access variable of the catalog item and get the value of it first ,then you can check if the returned user is a member of that group.

access approvers name using current.variable_name.isMemberOf('group name');
