Need help figuring how to do a synchronous glide record query in a onSubmit client script for scoped app.

[Jon Ulrich]

I am working on a scoped application where i need an onSubmit client script to make sure there is an attachment inserted before the record can be submitted.

The problem I have run into is both glideAjax and glideRecord will not allow synchronous queries form client script, and asynchronous onSubmit scripts simply don't work.

Any ideas out there?

Create a business rule to query attachment table. Be aware that hasAttachments() will not work in Scoped applications.
