how to fetch selected dropdown value of the variable in catalog task

[Sachin G K1]

Hi Team,

I have dropdown field called device which has 2 options mobile and laptop. User can select any one of these option while submitting the request.

I wish to fetch the value the user has selected in "reusable flow step" script. so i can include it in catalog task short description. i,e if user has selected mobile. the short description of task should be "user has selected mobile".

I wish to achieve this without using data pill and only through script.

Thanks in Advance

I hope this helps.

Enable advance script and call the variable.

task.short_description =  "User has selected " + current.variables.DEVICEVARIABLENAME.getDisplayValue();

Change DEVICEVARIABLENAME to the name of your form's variable.

Are you using Workflow for this Requested Item?

I've created a quick Item that has a select box using Mobile and Laptop as the 2 options.

In the workflow I use a 'Catalog_Task' and checked advance applied the following code to set the Short Description.

task.short_description = "User has selected " + current.variables.device_cust.getDisplayValue();
