Pass variable parameter from catalog item to flow

[Nico12]

Hi,

I have a catalog item with one single variable.

User can chose application from cmdb_ci_appl.

After submitting, the task should automatically run a script that will get the application the user enter.

I was thinking using a flow but i don't know how to pass the variable name from the Task to the script in the flow

I have a line like this :

var application_name = ["NAME OF THE APPLICATION"];

The application name chosen by the user in the catalog item should goes here in the flow script.

Any idea how to achieve this ?

Regards,

Hi Ankur,

I have created a custom action script with imputs like this :

Then i call this input in my script :

var application_name = ["application_from_script"];

Final step in my flow i link application_from_script with my catalog variable :

Unfortunatly, the script return an empty variable.

Do you have a clue ?

Hi,

it takes a reference object as input

So can you just use this as input 1->application and don't send Name
