how to get the display value of a sys id being used in an array

[sohan_snow]

Hi All,

I need to get the assignment group of a catalog task on the description. The below scripts is working except for printing the Display value of the Grouip

grpp=[];

for(i=0;i<grpp.length;i++)
{
var gr= new GlideRecord('sc_task');
gr.request_item=current.sys_id;
gr.short_description='bingo fullillment group is : ' +grpp[i].getDisplayValue();                               //   Using grpp[i].getDisplayValue();   returns undefined
gr.description='bingo - description of this RITM';
gr.assignment_group=grpp[i];
gr.insert();
}

Catalog tasks are getting created as intended

Thanks in advance

Hi Sohan,

Does your sys_user_group table have a display value assigned? I don't think it does by default. Check that out or try printing + grpp[i].name instead.

Hi David,

thanks it did not have the display value , I have now set it . Do you think there could be any other issue

But still the display name isn't coming, I tried with gs.log('Bravo, the group display name is :'+grpp[i].name ); and it returned the below

How have you populated your array? It must be an issue with the data in there if you're still getting undefined values coming through.

I have done it via script include

Script include

getgroup:function(){
 
  var getid=[];

var gr= new GlideRecord('u_007_access');
      gr.addQuery('u_catalog_item_name',current.variables.name);
gr.query();
while(gr.next())
 
  {
    getid=gr.u_group007+','+getid;
   
  }
  var eachId1 = getid.split(',');
 
return eachId1;

},

Workflow Run Script

var grp= new access();     \\ calls the script include
var grpp=' ';
var grpp= grp.getgroup(); \\ calls the function getgroup inside script include

gs.log('Bravo, the group returned is = '+grpp.getDisplayValue());                                   \\
gs.log('Bravo, the group length is ='+grpp);

for(i=0;i<grpp.length;i++)
{
var gr= new GlideRecord('sc_task');
gr.request_item=current.sys_id;
gr.short_description='bingo fullillment group is : ' +grpp[i].getDisplayValue();
gr.description='bingo - description of this RITM';
gr.assignment_group=grpp[i];
gr.insert();
gs.log('Bravo, the group display name is :'+grpp[i].name );
}
