If you need it on server side, You can use business rule:

// Business Rule to update description field of sc_task with selected checkbox variables

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

    // Array to store selected checkbox variables
    var selectedCheckboxes = [];

    // Check each checkbox variable and add selected ones to the array
    if (current.checkbox_variable_1 == true) {
        selectedCheckboxes.push('Checkbox Variable 1');
    }

    if (current.checkbox_variable_2 == true) {
        selectedCheckboxes.push('Checkbox Variable 2');
    }

    // Add more if statements for additional checkbox variables

    // Update the description field with selected checkbox variables
    current.description = "Selected Checkbox Variables: " + selectedCheckboxes.join(', ');

    // Update the sc_task record
    current.update();

})(current, previous);

Hi @Tuhina Sharma in your flow designer use get catalog variables action and select item and variables

when you create a task add the check box variables here

or you could use onload client script on sc_task table to show check boxes which are checked

script:

var checkbox = g_form.getValue('variables.checkbox1');

if(checkbox )

{

g_form.setVisible('variables.checkbox1',true);

}

Hi @Tuhina Sharma ,

You cannot get the label of a variable or a field in Flow Designer.

I can give you an alternative. Please follow the process.

Step 1: Get the variables using the "get catalog variable" action.

Step 2: Use "Create Catalog Task" action to create the task.

Step 3: while setting description value, use this script,

var desc = '';

if(fd_data._1__get_catalog_variables.checkbox_1){

    desc += "checkbox 1 \n"; // variable name of the 1st checkbox

}

if(fd_data._1__get_catalog_variables.checkbox_2){

    desc += "checkbox 2 \n"; // variable name of the 2nd checkbox

}

if(fd_data._1__get_catalog_variables.checkbox_3){

    desc += "checkbox 3 \n";  // variable name of the 3rd checkbox

}

return desc;

As we cannot get the label of the variable or field, we have to write the variable label inside condition.
