dot walking on referenced variable

[jesusemelendezm]

Hi everyone,

I need some help with an issue I am having.

I am trying to dot walk on a reference variable using the following syntax. I want to send group approval based on the business service change control field. The change control field is a reference field on the business service table or cmdb_ci table. This field stores the group I need to map the approval.

In this case... the variable name is "business_service".

var answer =[];

answer = current.variables.business_service.change_control.toString();

Thanks in advance for your help.

and you're trying to get the display value?

have you tried

var answer =[];

answer = current.variables.business_service.change_control.getDisplayValue()

or if you're just looking for the value,  

var answer =[];

answer = current.variables.business_service.change_control

Hi Jesus,

You might try this for a more robust approach.

var answer =[];

if (current.variables.business_service.change_control)

        answer.push(current.variables.business_service.change_control.toString());

All good. It works with my initial code. I had a problem actually with the users of the group. There was another br running that prevent some users for being approver and other groups were empty. Thanks all.

you try answer.push(current.....)?
