Create Element Error - Any Help?!

[Krishana Pal]

I have written a script to iterate on members list and generating XML content for automation processing. However, below script logic is failing! Can somebody help me on this please?

Script Details [ This logic will collect members lists & collect few necessary fields as mentioned below! ]

var members = current.variables.mailbox_members_access.toString();

var array = members.split(",");

if(members != ''){

          var members = soap.createElement(members, "ns5:members");

var user = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

user.addQuery('sys_id',"IN",members);

user.query();

user.setLimit(array.length);

while(user.next())

  {

  var memberUserName = '';

  var memberUserID = '';

  var memberManager = '';

  if(user.last_name)

  memberUserName += user.last_name+", "+ user.first_name;

  if(user.u_nt_domain)

  memberUserID += user.u_nt_domain +"\\"+user.u_nt_id;

  if(user.cost_center.manager.last_name)

  memberManager += user.cost_center.manager.last_name+', '+ user.cost_center.manager.first_name;

  var readUser= soap.createElement(gfsReadUsers, "ns13:dlMember");

  var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMemberuserName",memberUserName);

  var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMemberuserId",memberUserID);

  var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMembercostcenter",user.cost_center.account_number);

      var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMembercountryCode",user.country);

  var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMemberbusinessUnit",user.u_business_unit);

  var userAttri1= soap.createElement(members, "membersdlMemberccApproverName",memberManager);

}

}

Error Noticed:

Evaluator: org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: "soap" is not defined.

  Caused by error in script at line 101

  98: var array = members.split(",");

  99:

  100: if(members != ''){

==> 101: var members = soap.createElement(members, "ns5:members");

  102:

  103: var user = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

  104: user.addQuery('sys_id',"IN",members);

Any help on this will be highly helpful for me!

Hi Raghavendra,

Before calling createElement an xmlDoucument needs to be instantiated

along the lines of

var xmlDoc = new XMLDocument2();

Scoped XMLDocument2 API Reference - ServiceNow Wiki

..

4.6 createElement(String name)

Creates and adds an element node to the current node. The element name is the string passed in as a parameter. The new element has no text child nodes.

Parameters:

• name - (String) the element name.

Returns:

void

Example:

var xmlString = "<test>" +

    " <one>" +

    " <two att=\"xxx\">abcd1234</two>" +

    " <three boo=\"yah\" att=\"yyy\">1234abcd</three>" +

    " <two>another</two>" +

    " </one>" +

    " <number>1234</number>" +

    "</test>";

var xmlDoc = new XMLDocument2();

xmlDoc.parseXML(xmlString);

xmlDoc.createElement("new2");

Best Regards

Tony
