Calling script include answer

[josh_brostoff]

I have a script I want to execute depending on if the answer for a script include returns true or false.   I invoke the script include at the beginning of my script and want to add if "if/else" statement to decide wether or not the script should execute.   How can I do this?

(Script I want to execute if script include returns true)

(Script include)

Hello Josh,

var slack = new SlackUser();

var res = slack.activeUser(); //This would return true or false depeding on the output from Script include.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Pradeep - I tried this, but no luck:

var slack = new SlackUser();

var res = slack.activeUser()

if (res = false)

  {

  answer += 'Test'

  }

else {

//do this

}

when calling the script include, you want to include which function to call:

var slack = new GlideAjax('SlackUser');

slack.addParam('sysparm_name','activeUser');

slack.getXML(callback);

Then, in that same script, you want to add a callback function:

function callback(response){

  var ans = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

if(ans == true){

//what you want to do

}

else{

//what you want to do

}

If I use onSubmit client script

and if Script include returns false, then Form should not submit. 

what should I use for this? and where?
