Can't access to the display value of choice type variables in Flow Designer

[conradofonseca]

Here is my code:

var ritmNumber = fd_data.trigger.current.request_item.number.toString();
var typeOfDecommission = fd_data._1__get_catalog_variables.FHx_Action; // .getDisplayValue() and .display_value don't work.
var justification = 'Component retirement triggered by ' + ritmNumber + ' - automatically opened. Type of decommission: ' + typeOfDecommission;

return justification;

Just like it is right now, typeOfDecommission takes the catalog variable FHx_Action's value correctly, so it is having access to it, but I just don't know how to get to its display value. Please help!

Hi @conradofonseca ,

Please have a look at the below links -

I ended up using a GlideRecord just like in the first link. Thank you very much!

Hi @conradofonseca,

You can replace the 2nd line of code with the following -

var typeOfDecommission  = fd_data.trigger.request_item.variables.FHx_Action.getDisplayValue();

Cheers
