Comparison of Roles

[madhusudanshett]

Hi Everyone

Using the following code I am capturing the sys_id of the logged in user in an array.

var gr11 = new GlideRecord('sys_user_role');

  gr11.addQuery('name', gs.getUser().getRoles());

  gr11.query();

  gr11;

  var qry2;

  var objArray2 = [];

  while(gr11.next()) {

  objArray2.push(gr11.sys_id.toString());

  }

We have a role field in "sys_app_module" table of type "User Roles".

How can I compare the roles field of sys_app_module table with the values(sys_ids) in an array?

Please assist me on this.

Madhusudan, are you trying to check if the current user has at least one of the roles specified for a particular sys_app_module entry?

If so you could use, something like

var appId = ''; // Sys id of app

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_app_module');

gr.get(appId);

var roles = gr.getValue('roles'); // this would return something like 'itil,project_user'

var hasAccess = gs.getUser().hasRole(roles);

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I don't want to hardcode with sys_id because application changes here.

Thank you

Hi Pradeep

I want to display the modules on the page based on the logged in user role.

So I want to compare logged in user role with roles field of module.

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_app_module');

gr.addQuery('active',true);

gr.addQuery('roles',???)   //comparing logged in user role with roles field of module here

Please assist me on this.

Thanks in advance.
