Passing Value from Client Script to Business Rule

[salvadormarchan]

Hi All,

I have a variable editor at the Request Item table and the elements vary from one record to another (they start with "ni.VE"). I am able to retrieve these values via Label with this client-side code:

var labelList = document.getElementsByTagName('label');

var tempElem, tempName, tempID;

for (var i = 0; i < labelList.length; i++) {

    tempElem = labelList[i].firstChild;

    tempName = tempElem.data;

    tempID = new String(labelList[i].getAttribute('for'));

    if (tempID.indexOf("ni.VE") > -1) {

          alert(tempName + '\n' + tempID + '\n' + $(tempID).value);

    }

}

From wiki, g_scratchpad passes values from server-side to client-side.

Question: How do we pass values from client-side to server-side?

Thanks,

Dor

The simplest way would be a hidden field set by the client script and then consumed by the business rule.

Hi Salvador,

I can understand that you are trying to pass the variables from client side to server side. Instead try the below script directly in a business rule to access the variables in the variable editor.

Script:

for (key in current.variables) {

          var v = current.variables[key];

          if(v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel() != '') {

                gs.addInfoMessage(v.getGlideObject().getQuestion().getLabel() + " = " + v.getDisplayValue() + "\n");  

          }

}

Try this and let me know the outcome!
