Hi all,
I've been struggling finding a solution to access variable values in a scoped app.
My scoped app contains (simplified):
- A table "custom_item" extending the "sc_cat_item" table
- A variable set associated with every "custom item" containing a reference variable "user" pointing to the user table
- A basic workflow running on "sc_req_item" which accesses the variable.
When I order an item stemming from the custom_item table though the standard catalog application, the variable value is visible and accessible for users working with the item record like expected. However, a the workflow from the scoped app can only access the variable name, but no other property of the variable object.
I only get scope fencing exeptions, the variables array on the requested item contains no accessible values as well.
This is what I tried in a "run script " wf-activity:
//test1
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(current.variables)));
//test2
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(current.variables.user));
//test3
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(current.variables['user']));
//test4
gs.debug(current.variables.user.getValue());
//test5
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(current.variables.user.getGlideObject()));
//test6
gs.debug(current.variables['user'].getValue());
//test7
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(current.variables['user'].getGlideObject()));
//test8
gs.debug(JSON.stringify(workflow.getVariable('user')));
Unfortunately none of the above seems to work or give the value in a scoped app.
Is there any other way than using the REST Table API on the requested item variables to get these values from a scoped script or workflow?
I'm working on Kingston patch 1.
I really hope there is a simple way to access the values, this is driving me mad
Thank you in advance for your help!
Thilo
EDIT: Some minor code corrections in the run script example
