Flow Designer - DisplayValue

[Wasdom_Kung]

Hello,

Currently within any items using a flow, the short description fields are populated with text and then  data pill for a form choice such as hardware type. However, when the short description is populated, it is the value of the choice and not the display value. 

I've had a look through some of the transforms and scripts but can't see a way to get the display value to show instead - can someone tell me how to achieve this?

Thanks!

This seems to work until the variable displayvalue retrieval - it is giving 'undefined', I tried to remove .variables. from the script but this didn't work either

I was able to get the variable choice label and set it in Task Short Description; please try this

Script for your case:

var ritmSysId = fd_data.trigger.request_item.sys_id;
var rec = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
rec.get(ritmSysId);
var variableDisplayValue = rec.variables.please_select_the_type_of_change_you_require.getDisplayValue();
return 'New Work Request - ServiceNow:' + variableDisplayValue;

That's it working now, thanks a lot man!

Also works for populating the request short description too 🙂
