ismemberOf in BR condition field

TM19 · ‎07-03-2020

Hi

I want to make a scoped BR run a conditon:

Suppose the BR is on incident table, then the BR should only run when the caller in the caller_id field is a member of a particular group.

I tried the below code in the condition field

gs.getUser(current.caller_id).isMemberOf(<group name>)

But this gives false, because instead of taking the user in caller field it takes logged in user.

Any solution for this?

Note: If similar code is user in background script as below in a gliderecord:

gs.getUser(gr.caller_id).isMemberOf(<group name>)

It returns the expected output.

HI @TM,

isMemberOf() will only work for loggedin users but as your requirement is to use the script in BR CONDITION. To achieve this you need to write a Script include and GlideRecord Group Member table and check if Caller is member of group then return true otherwise return false. Let me give you a sample.

BR CONDITION [if script include is in SAME scope]

javascript: new groupMemberUtility().member(current.caller_id);

BR CONDITION [if script include is in GLOBAL scope i.e call it by its API name]

javascript: new global.groupMemberUtility().member(current.caller_id);

SCRIPT INCLUDE

NAME - groupMemberUtility

var groupMemberUtility = Class.create(); //(auto generated)
groupMemberUtility.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, { //(auto generated)

    member: function(data) {

        gs.info("$$SH ---> Script include called!!! " + data);
        var gr = new GlideRecord("sys_user_grmember");
        gr.addQuery("user", data);
	    gr.setLimit(1);
	    gr.query();
        
	    if (gr.next())
           return true;

        return false;
    },

});

Please mark this CORRECT & HELPFUL, if it answered your question.

Can you post your entire code? It should work I think there might be another reason you're getting false.

Hi Elijah

This is the entire code. This is to be applied to condition field of BR

Hi TM.

Try the below script :

Replace the group sysid in the group name or the group name

gs.getUser().getUserByID(current.getValue('caller_id')).isMemberOf(<group name>)

Mark helpful and correct if it helps.

Thanks,

CB

Hi CB

Thanks, but this is not working. Tried with both group name and sysid
