Compare User Information on ACL against Records for Read Access

Hello, I have users in 4 regions who all have "read" access to the table. They are requesting we lock read access down by location. Im struggling on the script I would write to look up users location "user.location" and if it matches current.fieldname.location then allow read. 

 

Any guidance would be appreciated!

Hi @Nic Omaha ,

 

U can try something like this

 

if(current.fieldname.location == gs.getUser().getLocation()){

answer = true;

}else{

answer= false;

}

 

Thanks,

Danish

Hello @Nic Omaha 

 

Use belo script

 

answer = checkUser();
function checkUser(){
var usr = gs.getUserID();
var groups = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
groups.addQuery('sys_id='+usr);
groups.query();
if(groups.next()){
if(groups.location=='your_location_name'){
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}

 

Please accept solution and mark as helpful, if it resolves your query.
