ArrayUtil indexOf/contains not working

[Rachel55]

Hello.  I am trying to create a script for a login rule.  I am testing in backgroud scripts.  The script is supposed to look for a specific role for the logged in user.  Without the if statement, the array will print, and I can see that it contains itil. When the if statement is added, it gives the error message "Javascript compiler exception: Java class "[Ljava.lang.String;" has no public instance field or method named "size". (sys_script_include.fb32a2d8c0a80a6000e907036f484b5b.script; line 61) in:".  I get the same error whether I am using "contains" or "indexOf".

var arrUtil = new ArrayUtil();

var u = gs.getUser();

var myArray = u.getRoles().toString().split(",");

if (arrUtil.contains(myArray, "itil")){

gs.print("yes");

}

for (i=0; i<myArray.length;i++) {

gs.print(myArray[i]);

}

You can just check if the user has the 'itil' role, without getting all their roles.

gs.hasRole('itil')

Agree with @Tiffany Royer however get all the roles the user has you can remove line 2 and 3 with the following code.  When I tried to run what you had in scripts back ground it was erroring our.

var myArray = gs.getUser().getRoles();

If you are not in scoped application try using below code:

 var u = gs.getUser();
var myArray = u.getRoles().toString().split(",");

if (myArray.indexOf( "itil"))

{

gs.print("yes");

}

for (i=0; i<myArray.length;i++)

{

gs.print(myArray[i]);

}

If you in scoped application arrayUtil cannot be accessed and you can replace gs.print with gs.info.

var myArray = new global.ArrayUtil(); //for scoped application

myArray = u.getRoles().toString().split(",");
