Auto populate list collector

[tpoeckes]

Hello all,

I'm trying to pass the sys_id form CI UI Action button to catalog item.  That part is working.  I want to auto populate the right slushbucket with the CI sys_id that was passed.   For some reason one of my highlighted statements (in client script below) does not work.  I got the example from servicenowguru. 

Here's the slush bucket.

Here's my client script in catalog item. The gel function does not work.

Hi,

since your script is using gel which is not recommended you need to set isolate script to false for that onload client script; this field is not available on form but from list layout you can set it to false; by default it is set to true

making it to false would allow gel() and DOM manipulation script to work

Hi Ankur,

Since I have the sysid of CI in that first alert in code above, how would I get that to the rightBucket?

Hi,

So you are getting the comma separated sys_ids from the url; now you want to populate the right side of slush bucket with this?

So do this

function onLoad(){

var gURL = new GlideURL();
gURL.setFromCurrent();
var sysId = gURL.getParam('sysparm_cisysid');

var array = sysId.toString().split(',');
addItemstoList('select_cis',array);

}

function addItemstoList(listCollector, groupList) {
var varName = listCollector;
var leftBucket = gel(varName + '_select_0');
var rightBucket = gel(varName + '_select_1');
var rightOptions = rightBucket.options;
var rightIDs = [];

//Remove --None--
//for (var i = 0; i < rightOptions.length; i++) {
var value = rightOptions[i].innerHTML;
if (value == '--None--') {
rightBucket.remove(0);
}
//}

// Add new options
if (groupList != null) {
var myCIArray = groupList.split(',');
for (var j = 0; j < myCIArray.length; j += 2) {
addOption(rightBucket, myCIArray[j], myCIArray[j + 1]);
sortSelect(rightBucket);
leftBucket.onchange();
}
}

// sort the buckets
sortSelect(rightBucket);
}
