Tag a role to an Assignment Group

[sachinhs]

Folks,

Need your help on how to add/append a Role to an Assignment group via script.

On a custom module, user will select a Role (Choice) and Group (Reference), once saved I want to add that role into the group, so that everyone under that Group will inherit the Role.

Kindly suggest.

please share screenshot how user will select role and group?

Sample script, ensure the choice value for the role is the actual role sysId

try {
    var groupRoleRec = new GlideRecord('sys_group_has_role');
    groupRoleRec.initialize();
    groupRoleRec.setValue('group', current.groupField);
    groupRoleRec.setValue('role', current.roleField);
    groupRoleRec.insert();
} catch (ex) {
    gs.info(ex);
}

Hi @sachinhs ,

You write after business rule with when to run condition like Role and Group is not empty and use below script.

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

    var roleSysId = current.u_role; // Replace with actual filed name
    var groupSysId = current.u_group; // Replace with actual filed name

    var gr= new GlideRecord('sys_group_has_role');
    gr.addQuery('group', groupSysId);
    gr.addQuery('role', roleSysId);
    gr.query();

    if (!gr.next()) {
        var newGroupRole = new GlideRecord('sys_group_has_role');
        newGroupRole.initialize();
        newGroupRole.group = groupSysId;
        newGroupRole.role = roleSysId;
        newGroupRole.insert();
    }
})(current, previous);
