How to access Catalog item variable from Multirow variable set client script

[Dush2]

Hi all
I'm developing an scope app and I have come across a scenario where I must access a field value( Question) defined on the Catalog item say "Customer" from a client script of  Multirow variable set  and filter only the visitors belongs to that Customer.

Customer field on Catalog variables section

Based on the customers the visitor (reference field) of the Multirow variable set needs to be filtered and displayed.

Kindly share your advice how should I get the value of Customer field on to the client script of Variable set.

Please refer below screenshot from documentation

@Dush 

you cannot access outside variables in ref qualifier of variable present in MRVS

but there is a workaround mentioned here; try that and enhance as per your case

issue is when useing g_form you access the g_form from the MRVS itself.

You can bypass this by placing a catalog client script on the item. with onload.

var g_form_item = g_form

now within the MRVS itself use the g_form_item as if you are on the form itself. Do something like:

var customer = g_form_item.getValue('customer');

<do rest of actions>

And yes, note this is not officially not possible, and yet it works.
