Must be member of group as well as group type to see edit button list control

[Jalen Dixon]

Hello, I am stuck trying to figure out why my script is not working. There are 2 set of groups. The first part works. The 2nd part is my issue - where I specify the type of group. This is how its supposed to work:

- If you are a member of the group and the group type is approval or support, show the edit button. Cannot get this to work for nothing. Please help. 

var answer = true;

var currentUser = gs.getUser();

var allowedGroups = gs.getProperty("property1");

var allowedGroups2 = gs.getProperty("property2");

allowedGroups = allowedGroups.split(",");

allowedGroups2 = allowedGroups2.split(",");

for (var i = 0; i < allowedGroups.length; i++){ // this part works fine

if (currentUser.isMemberOf(allowedGroups[i])){

answer = false;

break;

}

}

for (var j = 0; j < allowedGroups2.length; j++){ // this is the issue

if ((currentUser.isMemberOf(allowedGroups2[i]) && parent.type.indexOf('sysID of Approval type group') == -1) || (currentUser.isMemberOf(allowedGroups2[i]) && parent.type.indexOf('sysID of Support type group') == -1)){ // Group type is Approval or Support

answer = false;

break;

}

}

Hi @Jalen Dixon ,

Try below line using j instead of i in loop

if ((currentUser.isMemberOf(allowedGroups2[j])&& parent.type.indexOf('sysID of Approval type group') == -1) || (currentUser.isMemberOf(allowedGroups2[j]) && parent.type.indexOf('sysID of Support type group') == -1)){ // Group type is Approval or Support

Mark it as helpful and solution proposed if it serves your purpose.
Thanks,
Anand
