Condition on Client Script

[jared_wentzel]

I am trying to set a condition on a client script so it will run for all users except for those with a specific company value set on their user account... and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong!

Condition:

gs.getUser().getRecord().getValue('company') != 'CompanySysID'

Any Suggestions??

Hi Jared,

You aren't able to access 'gs' from the Client. However, you could create a Script Include with a static method (put this logic in that method) and mark the Script Include to be client callable, and then use a client script to call the Script Include to retrieve this information.

Thanks,

Joe

I have never done any of that before. can you point me in the right direction or elaborate a little bit more?

Hi Jared,

Yes, please review our Wiki for more information on how to use Script Includes. I have attached a link below.

Probably doing it way wrong but here is what I did and it isn't working... As if Javascript wasn't finicky enough.. ServiceNow added a whole other level of complexity and ridiculousness.... This is should be a very very simple task but you have to jump through hoops to get it to work right..

Script Inclide:

var CompanyInclude = Class.create();

CompanyInclude.prototype = {

    initialize : function() {

    },

    myFunction : function() {

          gs.getUser().getRecord().getValue('company')

    },

    type : 'CompanyInclude'

};

Client Script Condition:

CompanyInclude != '5c6faa8389a249405f2c0203c80f605c'
