How to Validate inbound data through Import set API before creating incident

[String]

Hi all,

we created web-service through import set API ,but while giving the wrong data values like Impact:ABC and urgency:XYZ in json as show below ,Still the data is inserting .

Please help me to validate data before inserting record 

{

"u_description":"test",
"u_short_description":"test",

"u_urgency":"XYZ", //instead 1-High
"u_impact":"ABC", ////instead 1-High

}

I believe you will have to do it for every incoming value separately.

Please check this question also. I believe this is answered. Please mark appropriate response as correct and helpful.

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,

We have to  do separately means  lot of hardcodes values we have to keep like assignment group values are 80 are there ,Any dynamic way to validate ?

Hi Kiran,

you can use system property to hold the values you want to validate against

Example:

property will hold comma separated 80 values of group names

then you can validate as below

(function runTransformScript(source, map, log, target /*undefined onStart*/ ) {

	// Add your code here

	var groupValues = gs.getProperty('group_names').toString();
	
	var incomingGroupName = source.u_group_name;
	
	var arr = groupValues.split(',');
	
	var arrayUtil = new global.ArrayUtil();

	if(!arrayUtil.contains(arr,incomingGroupName)){
		ignore = true;
		status_message= 'Group name is not valid';
	}

})(source, map, log, target);
