I have a Form button UI Action that I'm trying to narrow a condition for. I currently have it written as:
g_user.hasRoleExactly('help_desk') && (current.state != '6' && current.state != '7' && current.state != '8')
This is not working. I have broken it up and tested each condition individually, all of the state checks work fine but the role check will not even work on its own. I have also tested using the basic hasRole() and that works fine, but due to admin privileges need to use hasRoleExactly. Does anyone have any experience using this function that might be able to give me some insight as to why this isn't working?

I stand corrected. As I mentioned earlier you can only use server side code in the conditions. Try my code as mentioned in my previous response
(gs.getSession().getRoles().indexOf('help_desk') >-1) && (current.state != '6' && current.state != '7' && current.state != '8')

Hi Bradley,
hasRole() returns true if the user has the specified role or an admin role. You don't want admins to get access either?

You are mixing both client side and server side here. You can use this
(gs.getSession().getRoles().indexOf('help_desk') >-1) && (current.state != '6' && current.state != '7' && current.state != '8')

you can also use this :
g_user.hasRoleExactly('help_desk') && (g_form.getValue('state') != 6 && g_form.getValue('state') != 7 && g_form.getValue('state') != 😎
Thanks

FYI: I just went through the documentation. it does support both client side and server side scripts in conditions. This condition
g_user.hasRoleExactly('help_desk') && (current.state != '6' && current.state != '7' && current.state != '8') should work
