What is the best approach to get the translated states and stages from the choice list table and use it on the notifcations.

Hello @lawrencesenpai 

Enable language debugger to find which table they fall under.

I use this to translate the labels for the notifcations so it will be translated to the preferred language of the user. However on the notifcations, if I use this ${priority}  it still gives the english one instead of the translated in the choice list. So do I need to create a new notifcation script and use that instead? Thanks!

@lawrencesenpai You can use getDisplayValueLang method available in GlideElement class to get a translated choice from table.

Here is the description of this method.

Here is the example.

var uiView = new GlideRecord("sys_ui_view");
uiView.get("fa776f6d97700100f309124eda2975bc");
gs.info("getDisplayValueLang: " + uiView.getElement("title").getDisplayValueLang("de")); //Display value in German

So if I use this one, I need to create a notification script and use it on the notifcations instead of the normal {$State} code?
