How to get Catalog Item Variable Value when "Save" Catalog task

[zzsrvnow]

Hello All.

Please could anyone help me with the question how to get the value of the Catalog Item variables displayed on the Catalog Task forms "Variables" section.  In my example image  the Catalog Task form "Variables" contain four variables. I need to retrieve  value of the "Test number" variable and compare it with some values in my code  and show the message to the user. 

To keep the question simple - how to retrieve value of the catalog item variable displayed on the Catalog Task form's "Variables" section.  Thank you in advance, any help very much appreciated.

current.variables.<variable name>

Hi there,

Where do you want to use the variable value? Client Side? Server Side? One specific variable? All variable?

If server side:

curent.variables.your_variable would do the trick.

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,

Hello Mark. I coded the Client Script. I set Catalog Item variables into the variable set. That created difficulty with the variable value retrieval. I created single variable for catalog item and issue is solved. Thank you so much for the response.
