Get selected items from related list.

Ivar Donado · ‎09-27-2018

Hi guys,

I got a question, there's one coworker who's trying to add some extra functionality to the "Create Change" button on the Vulnerability group form. In that form there's a related list of "vulnerable items" and he's trying to somehow grab what records are selected on that list through a script. I've been researching for a while but have only found information about using g_list.getChecked(), which only works directly on the list. I don't really think there's a way to grab that information as a related list is more of a "view" of an existing list with it's own query.

If you have any suggestions, I'll be thankful to see them ^^

We ended up finding a solution. It consisted in capturing the related list in an object so we could use GetChecked() on it by using getByName([related-list-name]).

var list = GlideList2.getByName("relatedListName");

var itemArray = list.getChecked();

itemArray would contain sys_ids of the selected items.

Hi Ivar,

I have the exact same requirement . I tried using this solution, but it is of no help..The GlideList2.getByName is returning undefined.
Can you help me with this.
