Passing Value from Client Script to Business Rule

salvadormarchan · ‎07-07-2014

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

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!

Please mark answer as correct/helpful, if it was really helpful.
