Hi, i am trying to retrieve variables from a Multirow variable set to an approval notification (sysapproval_approver table), but i am have trouble with that, i tried some solutions that i have seen in the forum, but that doesn't work for me. Below the email script that i am trying to use.
(function runMailScript(/* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
/* Optional EmailOutbound */ email, /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,
/* Optional GlideRecord */ event) {
var record = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
var sysCurrentRecordSysId = current.sys_id;
record.addQuery('sys_id', sysCurrentRecordSysId);
record.query();
while (record.next()) {
//Note, the value is a JSON string, so we parse it back into an obect to make it easier to work with
var obj = JSON.parse(record.variables.request_information); //update with your variable set name
for(var i=0; i<obj.length; i++) {
template.print('<br/>' + 'System: ' + obj[i].system_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Profile: ' + obj[i].profile_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Approver: ' + obj[i].aprovador_do_perfil);
// you copy and paste the template.print line and add more variables here
}
}
}
)(current, template, email, email_action, event);
Below what is showing in the notification, its only retrieve the catalog variables and not the multirow that i setup in the mail script
Solved! Go to Solution.

Glad to know.
For that sysId you need to query the table being referred by that variable and then get the display value
(function runMailScript(/* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
/* Optional EmailOutbound */ email, /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,
/* Optional GlideRecord */ event) {
var record = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
var sysCurrentRecordSysId = current.sysapproval;
record.addQuery('sys_id', sysCurrentRecordSysId);
record.query();
if (record.next()) {
var obj = JSON.parse(record.variables.request_information); //update with your variable set name
for(var i=0; i<obj.length; i++) {
var rec = new GlideRecord('tableReferredBySystemName');
rec.get(obj[i].system_name);
var rec1 = new GlideRecord('tableReferredByProfileName');
rec1.get(obj[i].profile_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'System: ' + rec.getDisplayValue());
template.print('<br/>' + 'Profile: ' + rec1.getDisplayValue());
template.print('<br/>' + 'Approver: ' + obj[i].aprovador_do_perfil);
}
}
}
)(current, template, email, email_action, event);

hello
try this script once
Also make sure your syntax of accessing email script in notification is like below
${mail_script:your_mail_script_name}
(function runMailScript(/* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
/* Optional EmailOutbound */ email, /* Optional GlideRecord */ email_action,
/* Optional GlideRecord */ event) {
var obj = JSON.parse(current.variables.request_information); //update with your variable set name
for(var i=0; i<obj.length; i++) {
template.print('<br/>' + 'System: ' + obj[i].system_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Profile: ' + obj[i].profile_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Approver: ' + obj[i].aprovador_do_perfil);
}
}
)(current, template, email, email_action, event);
Hope this helps

I tried this, but still not showing the variables from multirow.
I check the syntax in notification, and its correct.

(function runMailScript(/* GlideRecord */ current, /* TemplatePrinter */ template,
var mrvs = record.variables.request_information; //update with your variable set name
var objectCount = obj.getRowCount();
for(var i=0; i< objectCount .length; i++) {
var row = mrvs.getRow(i)
template.print('<br/>' + 'System: ' + row.system_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Profile: ' + row.profile_name);
template.print('<br/>' + 'Approver: ' + row.aprovador_do_perfil);
// you copy and paste the template.print line and add more variables here
}
}
