I'm trying to unhide a field with setVisible after catalog submission but it doesn't work!!!!

Hi everyone,

I’m new to using setVisible in a Catalog Client Script and I’m hoping I’m missing something simple.

Goal / expected behavior

• I have a Catalog Item with variables visible to the requester and one internal-only variable that’s hidden on the form.
• After the item is submitted, I want that hidden variable to become visible for our internal team to use.
• The variable is a Multiple Choice named action.

What I tried

• g_form.setVisible('action', true) and setDisplay in a client script.

Client script

function onSubmit() {
 if (g_form.isNewRecord()) {
   g_form.setVisible('action', true);
   }
}

Question
Do I need to handle this with an onLoad / onChange Catalog Client Script (or a Catalog UI Policy), and/or use a Script Include to control visibility for the internal team after submission?

Thank you so much. Is it possible to actually do it with an onSubmit client script? 
I am just dying to know what I did wrong?

Thank everyone. It worked!
